The Arizona Cardinals' porous run defense will face a significant challenge in containing Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams, according to analysis from Cardinals Wire. The Cardinals have struggled to stop opposing ground attacks this season, ranking among the league's worst in rushing yards allowed per game.
Williams, entering his third NFL season, has emerged as a key component of Denver's offensive attack. His combination of power, vision, and breakaway speed presents a difficult matchup for a Cardinals front seven that has consistently failed to set the edge and fill running lanes effectively.
Jess Root of Cardinals Wire highlighted the matchup as a critical factor in the upcoming contest, noting that Arizona's inability to defend the run could determine the game's outcome if not addressed. The Cardinals' defensive coordinator will likely need to scheme additional support in the box to limit Williams' production.
