Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals D/ST played a pivotal role in the 37-34 overtime win over the Seattle Seahawks, intercepting Russell Wilson three times, and sacking him twice.

Fantasy Impact

Budda Baker had an interception in the red zone and almost took it to the house if it weren't for the beast that is DK Metcalf chasing him down and preventing a potential game-changing play. The Cardinals picked off Wilson in overtime, which gave Kyler Murray and the Cardinals offense good enough field position to win the game. Cardinals D/ST will be on bye in Week 8 and will have an interesting matchup against the Miami Dolphins in Week 9.

The Arizona Cardinals D/ST held the New York Jets to 10 points allowed in the team's Week 5 victory.

Arizona also totaled three sacks on the afternoon. As expected, Joe Flacco and company weren't able to do much in this one. Fantasy players should continue streaming defenses against the Jets this year.

The Arizona D/ST had only one sack in a disappointing loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

After a promising start to the season, the Arizona D/ST has not looked good in back-to-back showings and is nothing more than a matchup-based streamer at this point.

The Arizona Cardinals D/ST didn't do a whole lot in Week 3. They sacked Matthew Stafford four times, but didn't cause any turnovers in a 26-23 loss to the Lions.

Fantasy Impact

They have yet to force an interception on the season, but continue to get to the quarterback. Through three weeks, the Cardinals defense has recorded 11 sacks and one forced fumble. They have a favorable matchup in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers and could be considered a streaming option in that matchup.

Arizona's D/ST allowed 15 points and had four sacks and two fumble recoveries Sunday against the Washington Football Team.

Fantasy Impact

The Cardinal's D/ST has played above expectations so far this season. They have favorable match-ups against Detroit, Carolina, and the New York Jets the next three weeks and should be considered a must-start option.
