Prediction:
Favre and the Jets struggled in San Diego on Monday night, dropping their second game of the year to fall to 1-2. Favre threw two interceptions in the first half and generally looked lost in Eric Mangini’s offense. He could bounce back against a suspect Arizona secondary, but many think he still needs time to learn the system. On the flip side, the Cardinals could take advantage of a very average Jets’ secondary with their array of offensive weapons. Kurt Warner is playing well right now and as long as running back Edgerrin James can keep the offense balanced, Arizona will have success in New York. But they must play better on the road then they have in years past. We predict the Cardinals over the Jets, 23-20.
