Cardinals Betting Tracker: Season of Losses Sparks Significant Changes
Less than a week has passed since Arizona played its final game of the 2022 season, but it feels like a lifetime ago.
After their 38-13 loss in San Francisco, which marked defensive lineman J.J. Watt’s final game with the team, the Cardinals have completely revamped their roster.
The day after the season ended, general manager Steve Keim stepped down and coach Kliff Kingsbury was dismissed. Kingsbury was let go less than a year after agreeing to a contract extension. The Cardinals are now in the process of searching for new hires, with the potential for the next head coach to have an offensive background.
Even though he is a popular figure on Instagram, quarterback Kyler Murray may not be fully healed from his torn ACL injury until after the start of the 2023 season.
While new beginnings usually bring hope for fans, the Cardinals’ chances for the upcoming season may seem dim on Arizona betting websites.
