Jets vs. Cardinals prediction, odds: NFL Week 10 picks, best bets

Could the New York Jets’ hard-fought home victory last week against Houston have been a positive, season-turning catalyst?

Only time will tell.

However, if the Jets can snag a road win against Arizona this weekend, a potential backdoor playoff berth is much more digestible, as their remaining schedule is fairly straightforward.

Let’s break down our Jets vs. Cardinals predictions and NFL picks for Sunday, November 10th.

Jets vs. Cardinals prediction

(4:25 p.m. ET, CBS)

It has been a tough first half of the 2024 regular season for the Jets, who have lost six games, four of which were by one score or less.

Winning the AFC East is likely out of the equation, considering they are four games out of first place, but the Jets’ season is not over yet by any stretch of the imagination. 

In fact, they have an outside shot of securing a wild-card spot, as Cincinnati dropped another game on Thursday night, falling to 4-6 on the season. 

Further, the Denver Broncos, who are currently in the final Wild Card spot, have to face the undefeated Chiefs this week and a formidable Falcons squad next week.

The Jets are only two games out of the playoffs despite its brutal start to the season. And its most recent 21-13 win over a could be the start of a run.

Meanwhile, Arizona has strung together three consecutive wins over Chicago, Los Angeles (Chargers), and Miami.

The Cardinals are now above .500 and a half-game ahead of Los Angeles (Rams) in the NFC West.

In short, the stakes are sky-high in this non-conference matchup.

And for that reason, I will be targeting the under in this game.

We saw a much more motivated and inspired Jets defense last week, holding a talented Texans offense to merely 13 points. 

And while the Jets have looked better on both sides of the ball, they still have not eclipsed 22 points scored in their past six games, including two games with Davante Adams in the lineup.

Betting on the NFL?

The Jets’ secondary hasn’t quite met its lofty expectations this season, but it is still a terrific unit, boasting the fourth-best coverage grade (PFF) and ranking second in both opponent passing yards per game and opponent completion percentage.

Sure, James Conner and Kyler Murray will pick up some yards on the ground, but the Jets defense appears more motivated and did a solid job containing Joe Mixon last week.

It should be a low-scoring, grind-it-out affair on Sunday.

Best Bet: Under 46.5 (-110, DraftKings)
