Fans of the Arizona Cardinals and sports bettors in Arizona are feeling let down by the team’s disappointing start to the NFL regular season, with consecutive losses to Washington and the New York Giants where they squandered leads.
The winless Cardinals will be taking on the undefeated Dallas Cowboys in Week 3 at State Farm Stadium. BetMGM Arizona has labeled them as 12.5-point underdogs, suggesting their odds of winning are slim.
Despite recent challenges, the Cardinals have consistently impressed in October over the last five years, with one of the best records in the NFL during that month. Yengols.com examined the October performance of all NFL teams since 2018 using StatMuse.com as the first month of the NFL season wraps up.

The Cardinals’ October record ranks 12th overall.
Since 2018, the Cardinals rank 12th out of the 32 NFL teams with a 14-9 record in October. Despite their success, they still trail behind the Saints, who hold the top spot with a 15-4 record in October since 2018.
During October, Arizona was sandwiched between Kansas City ranked 11th (13-8) and Indianapolis ranked 13th (12-8). The L.A. Rams (14-7) and Seattle (13-7) outshined the Cardinals in the NFC West. Arizona faces challenges in October this year with a new head coach and quarterback Kyler Murray recovering from a late-season ACL injury.
The Arizona sportsbook promotions for the remainder of the year will showcase some surprising odds, such as the Cardinals being listed at +8000 to win the NFC West after only two games. Meanwhile, the favored team, San Francisco, has odds of -650.
