It has been a wild two weeks for the Arizona Cardinals regular season.

I think if anyone told you they would be 2-0, most people would have been excited. Instead, it feels like fans are looking at this as the sky is falling.

Yet, despite the fans not loving how things have gone thus far, the Arizona Cardinals are 2-0 and heading into their first division matchup of the season against the San Francisco 49ers on the road, they are slight favorites.

According to our friends over at FanDuel Sportsbook, the Arizona Cardinals are 1.5-point favorites ahead of the game.

The Niners are also sitting at 2-0, they also held on in a win over the New Orleans Saints in New Orleans, but they also are starting Mac Jones at quarterback, likely in this one against the Cardinals as well.

They also are guaranteed to be without star tight end George Kittle.

However, they are a Kyle Shanahan coached team and Jones lit up the Saints, going for 279 yards and three touchdowns.

We will see how this line moves over the next six days.
