The Dallas Cowboys will host the Arizona Cardinals for Week 9’s Monday Night Football matchup, live from AT&T stadium. The Cowboys are 3-4-1 for the season so far, dropping them below .500 for the season, losing their last matchup in a blowout loss to the Denver Broncos. It has been the same narrative for them as it was in the previous weeks, as they need to figure out a way to fix their horrendous defense, sitting at 32nd allowing 401.6 yards in average.
Similarly, the Arizona Cardinals are 2-5 for the season. After starting out their 2025-26 campaign 2-0, they have now lost 5 straight games and it has been very concerning. While their defense is not the absolute worse, their offense has not been able to keep up with various teams across the league, averaging 310 yards a game.
| Recommended Bets | Fanduel | BetMGM |
|---|---|---|
| Javonte Williams rushing yards under 64.5 | -114 | -115 |
| Javonte Williams anytime TD scorer | -165 | -175 |
| Dak Prescott over 0.5 interceptions | -118 | +105 |
Javonte Williams could be held under 64.5 rushing yards, looking at his previous performances, where he only crossed the 64.5 yards threshold if the opposing team’s rushing defense was not as good. The Arizona Cardinals are ranked 12th in terms of rushing defense, allowing 100.9 yards in average.
Williams has scored in 6/8 games so far and is already up to 8 TDs this season, scoring two TDs in his previous game against a stout Broncos defense. Looking at the Cardinals’ 15th ranked scoring defense and 16th red zone defense, we expect Williams to get at least one TD in this game.
Dak Prescott may throw for over 0.5 interceptions, as he’s had 5 INTs so far this season, with two coming against the Broncos last week. The Cardinals are ranked 8th in interceptions this season and 19th on pass defense, which makes it likely that Prescott may throw an interception in this game.
We expect the Dallas Cowboys to pull off a win against the Cardinals. The Cowboys have struggled mightily when it comes to their defense but are 2nd in overall offense, 1st in passing defense, and 13th in rushing offense. The Cardinals may get stops, but since their offense is significantly worse, we doubt that they’ll be able to put on too many points, especially with Kyler Murray out for the game.
Prediction: Cowboys win the game 30-27

mma I cover the National Football League and things cannot get better than that. I always dreamed to play football or basketball professionally since I’m built like a Running Back. But now that I can’t, since I’m technically in the “Unc” age, I thought why not pick a career in sports industry? So here I am, doing what I love, and hoping that the Commanders win the Super Bowl. I give love to players when it’s due, but can be critical about their performances at the same time. Enough about me, now let my articles do all the talking.
