Thursday Night Football is here and the Denver Broncos are going to the desert to play the Arizona Cardinals.The NFL rule that every team must play at least one Thursday game means that you will get the occasional crap game and this is a strong candidate to be the crappiest one this year.The line as I write this is Denver by a point with the over/under at 42 1/2. I am going with Denver and the under.A couple of stats worth mentioning.Arizona has the fewest rushing yards through the first 6 games of the season in the Super Bowl Era (1966-on) and the Broncos have not had back to back losing seasons since 1971 and 1972 (when I was still in high school!),which is an NFL record. Denver's in desperation mode and the Cardinals are in rebuilding mode.Desparate trumps rebuilding every time. Should be a low scoring affair.
YTD 6-5-1 (2-3-1 Win. 4-2 O/U)
