The Arizona Cardinals are heading into Week 4 desperately needing a win. The team is traveling across the country to take on the New York Giants, who are coming off a win in Week 3.
The Cardinals started the season off on a high note, defeating the Chargers. However, neither the Chargers nor the Cardinals have won a game since then, so it’s unclear how impressive that win really was. This offense has shown some real signs of improvement, though, led by Trey McBride, Michael Wilson, and Jeremiyah Love.
Now, let’s see what Yahoo! Sports expects Wilson and Love to do from a fantasy football perspective in Week 4.

Projected Fantasy Points: 14.67
Jeremiyah Love is coming into his own as a rookie. The running back had his best game of the season in Week 3, ending with 90 rushing yards, one receiving score, and 19.40 fantasy points.
In Week 4, Love has a solid matchup to take advantage of. The Giants have given up the 10th most fantasy points to running backs so far, so there should be plenty of opportunities for the rookie to score. Love is a very solid start this week and should probably be in your starting lineup for most weeks going forward.
Michael Wilson
Projected Fantasy Points: 10.53
Michael Wilson has evolved into the Cardinals’ WR1. The receiver had a whopping 17 targets last week and ended with 11 catches for 89 yards, with one touchdown and 20.40 fantasy points.
That performance showed the type of ceiling Wilson could have. Marvin Harrison Jr. is clearly not going to be the go-to option he was expected to be, so Wilson should continue to be heavily featured. The Giants have also been mediocre against receivers, so Wilson should have plenty of opportunities once again to make some noise.
