The Cardinals are living on the edge. Their +8 TO margin is the only reason they are 5-1, because statistically they don't do much well. They are terrible in pass defense, don't run or throw the ball particularly well and are awful on third down. What's more is they lead the league the unforced turnovers against, meaning teams are very literally handing them games.

This may come as a shock to you, but turnovers are a part of the game. If they can consistently force turnovers and win by doing so, they will not have an * by their W-L column.

ETA: I am not a Cards fan by any means. Just making an observation.

Ya and guess what, turnovers decide games. In the NFL teams win 80% of games where they win the TO battle by at least 1. In 6 games they have 1 INT and are 15 for 15 on field goals.
