Denver has done well in the preseason and Payton wants to win this game. Even though Bo Nix won’t play, backups Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson will see snaps in this game as there are still some positions too evaluating. Denver has looked good in their games so far, putting up offense, while their defense looks solid. They go up against a Cardinals team that haven’t been interested in the preseason and are not playing any starters, and not Kyle Murray either who hasn’t seen a single snap this preseason. Arizona will trot out Clayton Tune again and Desmond Ridder who have looked lackluster so far.

Best bet: lay the points with Denver.
