Detroit vs Arizona Prediction & Odds:
Free NFL Betting Insights for 9/22/24

The Week 3 matchup between the Detroit Lions and Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium promises to be an intriguing contest. Both teams are coming off 1-1 starts and are eager to solidify their footing early in the season. Detroit’s offense, led by Jared Goff, has been productive but inconsistent. In Week 2, the Lions fell to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-16 despite amassing 463 total yards. Goff threw for 307 yards but was intercepted twice, and while Amon-Ra St. Brown shined with 119 receiving yards, Detroit struggled to convert key opportunities in the red zone. The Cardinals, meanwhile, rebounded from a tough Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills with a commanding 41-10 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Arizona’s offense was in top form, with quarterback Kyler Murray throwing for 266 yards and three touchdowns.

The Cardinals’ ground game, spearheaded by James Conner, has been particularly strong, averaging 177.5 rushing yards per game. Conner has been a consistent force, and his ability to wear down defenses could be a critical factor in this matchup. Defensively, Arizona limited the Rams to just 245 total yards, showcasing an ability to control the pace of the game. The Lions will need to rely on their own run game, led by David Montgomery, who has rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns so far this season. Detroit’s defense, which is allowing 20 points per game, will face a tough test in containing Murray and Conner. This game is likely to come down to which team can execute better in the red zone and avoid turnovers. If Goff can minimize mistakes and the Lions’ defense can limit Arizona’s explosive plays, Detroit could escape with a close win. However, the Cardinals’ home-field advantage and strong recent performances in September could give them the edge.

Detroit Lions NFL Preview

The Detroit Lions head into this Week 3 matchup following a frustrating loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where they struggled to capitalize on offensive opportunities despite outgaining their opponent in total yards. Jared Goff has been efficient overall, completing 62.7% of his passes for 524 yards, but his three interceptions through two games have been costly. Detroit’s rushing attack, led by David Montgomery, has been a bright spot, averaging 151 rushing yards per game. Montgomery’s power running will be key to balancing the Lions’ offensive attack and keeping Arizona’s defense on its heels. Defensively, Detroit has been solid, allowing just 301.5 yards per game. Aidan Hutchinson has been a standout with 5.5 sacks, and the Lions will look to put pressure on Kyler Murray to disrupt Arizona’s passing game. However, the Lions’ secondary will need to step up to limit big plays from Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr., who has been a deep threat for the Cardinals. Detroit will also need to improve their red zone efficiency if they hope to win on the road. With Goff leading a capable offense, the Lions have the firepower to compete, but they will need a more disciplined performance to secure a victory.

The Detroit Lions will face the Arizona Cardinals on September 22, 2024, at State Farm Stadium in Week 3 of the NFL season. Both teams have a 1-1 record and are looking to gain momentum early in the season. The Lions enter as slight favorites, but the Cardinals have shown resilience at home.

Arizona Cardinals NFL Preview

The Arizona Cardinals are coming off a dominant Week 2 win against the Los Angeles Rams, where they showcased both offensive firepower and defensive resilience. Kyler Murray was instrumental, throwing for 266 yards and three touchdowns, while also contributing on the ground with 57 rushing yards. Arizona’s ground game, led by James Conner, has been one of the strongest in the league so far, averaging 177.5 rushing yards per game. Conner has been a key figure in the Cardinals’ offense, with 172 rushing yards and two touchdowns through two games. Defensively, the Cardinals have been solid, allowing just 298.5 yards per game. Budda Baker leads the defense with 18 tackles, and Dennis Gardeck has contributed three sacks. Arizona’s defense will aim to contain a Lions offense that has been productive but prone to mistakes. Key to Arizona’s success will be forcing Goff into turnovers and controlling the game through their strong running attack. Given their track record in September and success in recent home games, the Cardinals are well-positioned to pull off an upset against the favored Lions.
