Health is, of course, going to be a factor, but on paper, this group looks solid.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous\u00a0moves this offseason and a healthy Carson Palmer\u00a0could not only help this team reach the postseason, but make them legitimate Super Bowl contenders. This group has gotten the attention of\u00a0<strong>NFL<\/strong> futures betters the past few seasons, and there&#8217;s a chance we see all that hype come to fruition.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63753&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Offensively,\u00a0Palmer is the guy\u00a0who\u00a0will determine whether or contender status actually comes to fruition. Larry Fitzgerald is a major asset on that side of the field, and Michael Floyd and John Brown also combine to create major potential for production, but as we saw last season, a healthy and productive Palmer is going to be Step 1 and 1B to finding succecss.<\/p>\n<p>On the ground, the\u00a0running game is a\u00a0question mark that could potentially be the true difference maker (assuming Palmer is healthy) when it comes to competing for a division title. Andre Ellington has worlds of potential, but at 26 years old, he&#8217;s already proven to be difficult to count on because of injuries.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66501&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>On the line, the Cards\u00a0signed\u00a0Mike Iupati. He and\u00a0tackle DJ Humphries (first-round draft pick) will look to not only protect Palmer, but also open up the running game.<\/p>\n<p>Defensively,\u00a0this group will look to stay competitive despite the losses of Darnell Dockett, Antonio Cromartie and Dan Williams.\u00a0Along with those departures, Arizona is also dealing with the loss of\u00a0defensive coordinator Todd Bowles.<\/p>\n<h3>Cardinals\u00a0Betting Outlook:<\/h3>\n<p>Unless this team can start with as much conviction as it did in 2014-15,\u00a0we should see a bit of a dip from the 11-win record we saw last season. ESPN&#8217;s Josh Weinfuss has predicted nine wins on the year, and that&#8217;s what I see as well.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63752&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Simply put: This division is the Seattle Seahawks&#8217; to lose. And unless something bizarre happens in the Pacific Northwest, this team from the desert will be a couple wins behind them in the standings when the regular season comes to a close.<\/p>\n<p>With training camps under way the NFL betting season is here at Cappers Picks.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/sportscapping.php?leaderboard\/leg,nfl\/afc,AF23_15\" rel=\"nofollow\">NFL Football handicappers<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0have been hard at work putting out the team by team\u00a02015 Football Predictions\u00a0and\u00a0<strong><a title=\"NFL Handicapping Blog\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/blog\/\">NFL Season Previews<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for those of us who can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n<p>The 2015 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/nfl\/\">NFL futures betting<\/a><\/strong> season is right around the corner!
