The quarterback was spectacular in the second half and finished 31 of 49 passing for 277 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
David Brandt Associated Press TEMPE — From the football abyss to overtime elation, the Arizona Cardinals had quite a range of emotions Sunday.
Arizona was penalized 12 times for 120 yards on Sunday. It's a trend that has dogged the Cardinals of late — they were also the fourth-most penalized team in 2021. The Cardinals gained just 86 total yards in the first half before heating up in the second half. Tight end Zach Ertz caught eight balls for 75 yards, Marquise Brown had six catches for 68 yards and veteran A.J. Green had a crucial grab on the 2-point conversion that tied the game at 23 and forced overtime. Journeyman receiver Greg Dortch continued his breakout season with four catches for 55 yards and a touchdown.
Stock downLB Isaiah Simmons lost his starting job after one week but had the team’s biggest moment in Week 2, forcing Renfrow’s fumble that was returned by Murphy for the overtime touchdown. Simmons has been an enigma for the Cardinals during his first three seasons and it's hard to know where he goes from here. He obviously can make big plays, but was on the field for just 15 snaps against the Raiders.
