Gino Bottero: The Cardinals started 2014 at 9-1 before the team's quarterback woes caught up with them. Carson Palmer enters this season healthy and Bruce Arians has guided Arizona to 21 wins in two seasons at the helm. The Seahawks have played a lot of football the last couple years, and it's about time that caught up with them. Cardinals +590 (Pinnacle)
Joe Thomson: There's an outside chance the Rams have the best defense in football next season. It may seem like you're throwing money away with this wager, but remember, the Seahawks were 6-4 at one point last season, on the ropes in the division, and the Cardinals may take a step back with a tougher schedule. The Rams offer great value. Rams +1002 (Pinnacle)
Dan Wilkins: Seattle is again a Super Bowl favorite heading in, but considering how close the Cardinals were to knocking them off the division's top spot last year, the odds couldn't be much more favorable. Cardinals +590 (Pinnacle)
