The Arizona Cardinals finished the past season with a 3-13 record, which was the worst in the league. They do not have Super Bowl LIV odds in their favor. This is understable, of course. Their poor finish led to the team getting rid of their head coach and hiring former Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury to rebuild the team.
The Cardinals kicked off free agency by signing veterans like Terrell Suggs, who had spent the first 16 years of his career with the Baltimore Ravens. Even though Suggs will end up in the Hall of Fame, his production dropped last season as he finished with 34 tackles. This was his lowest total since his rookie season. How will this impact Super Bowl LIV odds? Also, seven sacks, which was his lowest total since 2012, when he played only eight games.
Arizona also brought in former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Jordan Hicks and former Seattle Seahawks offensive lineman J.R. Sweezy.
Arizona’s biggest offseason move came during the draft, when they selected former Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray with the first overall pick. The move was surprising because the team had used its first pick in the 2018 draft to select Josh Rosen, who they later traded to the Miami Dolphins.

The Cardinals were able to bring in former Chicago Bears wide receiver Kevin White, who showed a lot of talent when he was in West Virginia but has only played in 14 games since he was drafted in 2016 because of injuries. The Cardinals are hoping a change in scenery will help White live up to his potential.
In addition to the moves they made in free agency, the Cardinals also picked up some talented players in the draft, selecting former Washington cornerback Byron Murphy and former UMass wide receiver Andy Isabella in the second round. Are the Cardinals making you want to place Superbowl bets yet? Zack Allen, who had 6.5 sacks as a senior at Boston College last season, was taken in the third round and is expected to compete for a starting job.
The Cardinals picked up a lot of talent in free agency and in the draft, but with a new coach, a rookie quarterback, and a lot of players who will be trying to figure out their role on the team, don’t expect the Cardinals to win more than five games this season. Their odds to win the Super Bowl is +10000.
