· Yahoo Sports
The Arizona Cardinals are a week away from their season opener. We know a little bit more about them and how they will look offensively and defensively. Offensively, they have some promise. Defensively, there are more questions than answers.

I made game-by-game predictions back in May when the schedule first came out.
Then, we knew far less than we do now about the team.
A week before they play games, let's make some game-by-game predictions again.

The Cardinals finish the season 6-11. The offense looks good in most games, but the question will be whether or not the Cardinals change quarterbacks after an 0-7 start.
Winning five of their final seven games gives the Cardinals some momentum for the offseason, but the big question will be whether or not they need to get a new quarterback. Will Carson Beck be the starter at the end of the season, and will wil he have played well enough to allow the Cardinals to go a different direction in the draft?
