The Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers battle in Week 5 - here's what to bet.
ARIZONA -- The Arizona Cardinals travel to battle the San Francisco 49ers in a crucial Week 5 divisional meeting."With the 49ers offense mostly healthy — except for Christian McCaffrey — they have a clear path to offensive success. Brock Purdy has been pushing the ball downfield more this season and is set up for a big game against the Cardinals' vulnerable secondary.
"In an ideal world, Arizona would line up in multiple-tight-end sets and run the ball at a high rate. However, without McBride, those formations lose their dynamic ability and become much easier to stop. Even if McBride is active, the Cardinals have been a bottom-eight offense in terms of success rate and don’t have a real matchup edge against a solid 49ers defense.
"Meanwhile, the Arizona Cardinals are allowing the sixth-most rushing yards per game in the NFL and are just 27th in EPA per rush on defense. Last week, Arizona gave up 101 rushing yards to Brian Robinson Jr. — plus another 68 to Jeremy McNichols. The week before also saw David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs combine for 188 on the ground.
