Arizona
The Cardinals return from their bye 3-0 and they get their signal caller back in Carson Palmer. That's the good news. The bad news is they have a tall order this week at Denver. I like what I've seen from the Cardinals defense so far. It'll be difficult to stop Peyton Manning and the Broncos, but I do believe Arizona will be up to the task, even on the road. Offensively, I like the match up for Palmer and the WR trio of Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd and John Brown. Before the bye last week, Denver was worst in the league in passing first downs allowed with 54 in three games.
Atlanta
It's very difficult for me to pick against Atlanta at home, but on the road they are a different team, especially in open stadiums. This week they travel to the Meadowlands to play the Giants. Similar to last week, I like the Falcons receiving game, but not as much as I would if the game were in the Georgia Dome. Antone Smith has scored in three of the four games this year. He hasn't had a lot of touches, but when he does, he excels. If Atlanta doesn't feed him the ball more, I'd be shocked. He's on the short list of proactive waiver wire claims (if he's still available).
