NFL Betting at BetAnySports — Undefeated Cards Get Lots of Points Against Broncos
It is not often that a team that is still unbeaten after four weeks of the NFL season is getting more than a touchdown in any game, but maybe that is indicative of the measure of respect oddsmakers have for the Denver Broncos, who are playing host to the Arizona Cardinals in the Mile High City. The Broncos, who have had a bye week to get past their Super Bowl rematch with the Seattle Seahawks (in an artful bit of scheduling by the league), will be looking to help one of their icons reach a milestone as they prepare for NFL betting action that is set to get underway at 4:05 PM ET at Sports Authority Field.
The Cardinals have done everything asked of them so far, on the way to a 3-0 records that can’t be considered a fluke, since it is just the next step in Bruce Arians’ resurrection of this team after a 10-6 finish last season that saw them barely miss the playoffs. They have beaten three pretty decent teams – the San Diego Chargers, New York Giants and San Francisco 49ers – and in the last two, they have done it with the second-string quarterback.
The Broncos won their first two games, albeit not in dominant fashion, then came back form a double-digit deficit in Seattle to tie the Seahawks at 20 and send the game into overtime, at which point they gave up an 80-yard TD drive and never got to touch the ball in the extra period. And so it goes.
In the NFL betting odds that have been placed on this contest at BetAnySports, the Broncos are big favorites:

Under 47 Points -110
Peyton Manning is humming along, as he has completed nearly 67% of his passes and eight touchdown and just one interception through the first three games. And he is moving up on a milestone, as his first touchdown pass in this game will be the 500th of his career. What football bettors might expect here is that Manning will look for his short targets like Wes Welker and Julius Thomas, as BetAnySports patrons know that the Cards have outstanding corners in Patrick Peterson and Antonio Cromartie.
Arizona quarterback Carson Palmer is still trying to figure out what is really wrong with his shoulder, which means that Drew Stanton will get the call once again. Stanton has barely completed half his passes (32 out of 62), but he has not thrown an interception, and that is what has been important in the wins over the Giants and 49ers. But that is not likely to be part of the formula that overtakes an explosive team like Denver.
If any player might help Arizona keep pace, it is running back Andre Ellington, who gained a reputation for breaking big plays as a rookie, but has been slowed down with a torn tendon in his foot. The hope is that with the Cards coming off a bye week themselves, Ellington may have gotten an opportunity for a bit of rest.
