Ways Packers can upset Cardinals: Win the turnover battle

The Cardinals have done a tremendous job at winning the turnover battle this season, as they rank number one in forced fumbles and third in takeaways. Overall, they’re also third in turnover margin, as they do a nice job protecting the football.

Meanwhile, Green Bay’s defense has done a great job forcing turnovers during their six game win streak, as they’ve forced 11 total and at least two in five of those six games. The Packers will need to find a way to do that again and give their shorthanded offense a short field to work with. Any slight advantage this unit can give will go a long way in deciding the outcome of this game.
