The Arizona Cardinals are often seen as a team that could surprise many in the upcoming NFL season. While not considered top contenders, there is a growing belief that they might exceed expectations and make a push for the playoffs.
However, oddsmakers are not as optimistic about the Cardinals’ chances. According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Cardinals have +320 odds, translating to a 23.81% chance of making it to the postseason in 2024. These odds rank them third lowest in the NFC, with only the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers having worse odds.
For Cardinals fans, this lack of faith in their team shouldn’t come as a shock. The Cardinals are currently in a rebuilding phase, with Kyler Murray established as their quarterback of the future. While they have made some solid defensive acquisitions like Justin Jones and Sean Murphy-Bunting, it will take more than that to transition from a 4-13 record to a playoff-caliber team in one season.
The team did have a promising draft, selecting standout receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and bolstering the defensive line with Darius Robinson. While these players may become vital to the team in the long run, it seems unlikely that they will be able to elevate the Cardinals to a postseason position in 2024.
While the future looks bright for the Cardinals, it may be wise to wait before investing in the hype surrounding the team. Perhaps another year will reveal a more competitive roster ready to vie for a playoff spot in the 2025 season.
