The Arizona Cardinals had every opportunity to win, and didn't play to win.
The Arizona Cardinals surrendered a 19-6 lead, losing to the Minnesota Vikings 23-22. It was a game they had to have, and they now fall to 6-6 and trail the Seattle Seahawks by a game and a half for the NFC West.
There's plenty of talent to be added and development to be done with young players, but if this team can't win games like Sunday's, they can't win in January. Their division-winning could be all but gone, and their overall playoff hopes are in serious trouble, with another extremely bad matchup with the Seahawks coming to Phoenix next week.
But as the Cardinals came up to run a desperation drive, I thought to myself "this team has no explosive ability."
