Injury Report & Team News
The Cardinals bring energy with rookie wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. ready to shine. Tight end Trey McBride is another big target and could be featured early. On defense, Arizona looks strong with a pressure-heavy scheme under Jonathan Gannon.
The Saints open the Kellen Moore era with rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler expected to get snaps. Veteran Alvin Kamara leads the run game while wideout Rashid Shaheed brings speed on the outside. The Saints offensive line has some questions with Trevor Penning sidelined.
Both teams will test new systems and that makes this opener unpredictable.
Game Preview and Our Prediction
Arizona comes in as a road favorite. Their defense should cause problems for a young Saints offense. Marvin Harrison Jr. could be the difference if he connects early with Kyler Murray.
The Saints will fight hard at home with Kamara and Shaheed giving Rattler playmaking help. Still, the Cardinals have more balance on both sides of the ball.
Oddsmakers list Arizona at –6.5 with the total around 44 points. Our call is a competitive game that leans toward the Cardinals. A score like Cardinals 27, Saints 20 feels likely.
The Cardinals and Saints open the season with new coaches and fresh storylines. Fans can watch live on CBS or stream through Paramount+, NFL+ or YouTube TV. It should be a hard-fought game with plenty of excitement for Week 1.
