Should the Broncos be SCARED of the Cardinals?
Denver’s defense commands respect—but uncertainty about the Broncos’ offense has people in Arizona seeing an opportunity. Luke Lapinski, co-host of Wolf and Luke on 98.7 Arizona Sports, joins Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay on The Drive to share how the matchup looks from the Cardinals’ side.
Lapinski explains why the conversation in Arizona centers on two things: the strength of Denver’s defense and the questions surrounding Bo Nix and the offense. He isn’t arguing that the Cardinals should be favored, but he says a lower-scoring game could give them a chance to compete.
The Cardinals have faced a demanding schedule featuring opponents such as the Rams, Seahawks, Chiefs, 49ers and Lions. Against that backdrop, Denver’s offensive struggles make this matchup look more approachable—even with a difficult defense on the other side.
For the Broncos, the concern is clear: can the offense produce enough to keep Arizona from hanging around, or will Denver leave the door open for a tight finish?
