The Arizona Cardinals had to come from behind at home to beat the San Diego Chargers in a thrilling 18-17 Monday nighter. That should give them a boost in week two as they take on the New York Giants. The opener did not go so well for the Giants. They knew that Megatron was going to be the focal point of the Detroit offense, but he still repeatedly found himself wide open. The Giants' secondary looks very beatable, and Carson Palmer carved up a pretty good Chargers defense for 294 yards and 0 INTs last week. The Cardinals should have won much bigger last week as they held a 403-290 yardage advantage. The problem the Giants have is that in their last nine road games, they have allowed five opponents to score 31 or more points, and six of nine have scored 27. That will be problematic to the total here as Arizona has gone an amazing 67-29-1 to the OVER in their last 97 games after gaining over 350 yards in their previous one. And, in the Tom Coughlin era, New York is 16-5 OVER in the first two weeks of the season. Take the OVER in this one.
