The Arizona Cardinals were 2-0 this season before dropping their last game to the Detroit Lions 26-23 last week. Quarterback Kyler Murray leads the offense with 786 passing yards, to go with 4 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. He is also second on the team in rushing with 187 yards and 4 touchdowns. Kenyan Drake leads the rushing attack with 219 rushing yards while DeAndre Hopkins caught 32 passes for 356 yards and a touchdown.

The Carolina Panthers came away with their first win of the season, outlasting the Los Angeles Chargers 21-16. Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater leads the offense with 871 passing yards, to go with 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Christian McCaffrey has been the leading rusher for the Panthers with 156 rushing yards this season but is out with injury. Robby Anderson has caught 20 passes for 278 yards and a touchdown.

Arizona looked good in their first two games but they were not very impressive against the Lions. The Panthers will struggle without McCaffrey against one of the top-scoring defenses in the league. The Cardinals will come away with an elusive road win.

Play on Arizona.
