The Arizona Cardinals’ 2024 win total trend is set at 6.5 wins, in line with other teams with similar win totals.
Arizona Cardinals fans have undoubtedly endured a challenging last decade, only making one playoff appearance since 2016 and failing to secure any postseason victories.
The Arizona Cardinals are determined to turn their fortunes around after two lackluster seasons, with Head Coach Jonathan Gannon and his team eyeing a successful 2024 campaign. Follow along as we track their progress and playoff prospects this season.
Marvin Harrison Jr., the first round draft pick from Ohio State, is expected to bring his on-field success to the Valley and possibly lead the franchise to a redemption story this upcoming fall.
After analyzing data from SportsReference.com, we discovered that DraftKings Arizona has set the Cardinals’ win total for the 2024 NFL season at 6.5 wins (-150 over). We examined the performance of all teams with a 6.5-win total line in the past 10 NFL seasons.

Will Cardinals be able to fly in 2024?
Since 2014, 63% of the 27 teams that started the season with a win total over/under of 6.5 went on to win seven or more games, and 29.6% of them reached the playoffs.
Last season, the Houston Texans and Tampa Bay Buccaneers made waves in the league by reaching the Divisional Round, only to come up short after strong performances in the regular season.
In the upcoming season, Kyler Murray and the Cardinals hope to replicate the success of previous teams and strive to emulate the 2021 Cincinnati Bengals, who defied expectations by reaching the Super Bowl despite starting the year with a projected win total of 6.5. This accomplishment made them only the second team out of 27 to achieve this feat.
The Cardinals must come out strong from the beginning, beginning with their Week 1 away game against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 8. Murray and his fellow players aim to shift the momentum in Arizona following two disappointing 4-13 seasons that fans are eager to put behind them.
It is also worth noting Marvin Harrison Jr.’s likelihood of winning Rookie of the Year in 2024.
