The first Arizona Cardinals Monday Night Football contest since new Arizona sports betting apps launched did a number on the home team’s Super Bowl odds.
That’s because the Cardinals lost to the Los Angeles Rams 30-23, falling to 3-3 at home and 10-3 for the year — knocking Arizona to the No. 3 seed in the NFC.
The Cardinals have five days to shake off their first loss in almost a month, as they head to the Motor City to play the 1-11-1 Detroit Lions at 11 a.m. Arizona time Sunday on FOX.
