Main Storylines to Watch

Can the Cardinals cover after two surprisingly close games in Week 1 and Week 2? The Cardinals have covered the spread in both of their first two weeks. They came into the season as the most likely team to earn the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The Cardinals have been at least a touchdown underdog in both weeks and came out with a four-point loss in Week 1 and a three-point loss in Week 2.

Will the Cowboys get up for this Week 3 matchup as very heavy favorites? The Cowboys have beaten their opponents in the first two weeks by a combined 60 points. This team is absolutely demolishing their opponents. This Week 3 matchup against one of the worst teams in the NFL is looking like another blowout on paper.
