Today at 1:00 p.m. ET the Arizona Cardinals (1-0) will head to MetLife Stadium after a Monday Night Football win to take on the New York Giants (0-1), who were decidedly less successful on Monday.

The Giants' passing game was out of sync for the entirety of their Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions, and while the Cardinals may not be able to bring as much pressure as Detroit's defensive line did, the Cardinals boast possibly the league's top secondary this season.
That said, Giants quarterback Eli Manning isn't betraying any concern about their shaky passing attack.
"I'm not concerned," Manning said. "From that first game is where you'll learn the most. Looking at a full game and a lot of plays we'll go back and dissect and it'll be great for me to learn where I need to improve, where I need to get better."
Wide receiver Victor Cruz echoed Manning, and called for the G-Men to remain upbeat. "It's about keeping in the mind of our team that this is correctable," Cruz said. "We can come out of this with some positivity for Week 2."
Arizona was a surprise 10-6 team last year that missed the playoffs essentially because the NFC was stacked. This year there are some new players aboard, but head coach Bruce Arians said the team's mentality stayed the same.
"What carries over from one year to the next, because we have a lot of new faces?" Arians said. "Well, the belief that we are good enough to get it done carried over, because it was there from the Seattle game and other games last year."
