Oddsmakers currently have the Cardinals listed as 2-point favorites versus the Redskins, while the game’s total is sitting at 49.

Arizona surrendered a total of 68 points in losses at Minnesota and Atlanta in its last two games, and Arians hinted at selfishness as the cause. “I thought, defensively, we had some guys get out of their lane again and try to do too much,” he told reporters, “tried to get on the stat sheet instead of just doing their job.” Safety Tyrann Mathieu played against the Falcons last week but described himself as “limited” due to a shoulder injury while cornerback Marcus Cooper recorded a career-high nine tackles.

In their last action, Arizona was a 38-19 loser on the road against the Falcons. They failed to cover the +4-point spread as underdogs, while the combined score (57) was profitable news for OVER bettors.

Arizona Stats:
Team record: 4-6-1 SU,3-8 ATS
Arizona is 0-5 ATS in its last 5 games
Arizona is 1-3-1 SU in its last 5 games
Arizona is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games at home

Kirk Cousins is playing out the season under the franchise tag and continues to give the team reasons to sign him to a long-term extension. Cousins threw for 449 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in the 31-26 loss at Dallas – the second time in the last four games he went over 440 yards and his third contest in a row without an interception. “Much like any other job, as you perform it longer in the same role, you’re going to get comfortable and say, ‘OK, I’ve been here, I’ve done this, I can do this,'” Cousins explained to reporters.

The Redskins were a 31-26 loser in their most recent outing on the road against the Cowboys. They covered the +5.5-point spread as underdogs, while the total score (57) made winners of OVER bettors.

Washington Stats:
Team record: 6-4-1 SU,8-3 ATS
Washington is 8-1 ATS in its last 9 games
Washington is 6-2-1 SU in its last 9 games
The total has gone OVER in 14 of Washington’s last 16 games
