It had been just over three years since the Cardinals won back-to-back games with Kyler Murray at quarterback—dating back to October 2021. But that drought ended this Sunday when the Cardinals mounted another thrilling second-half comeback to edge out the Miami Dolphins 28-27.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The Cardinals‘ last three victories have all come down to clutch field goals in the final minutes. Each of these wins has been by a razor-thin margin of two points or less. Kicker Chad Ryland has become the Cardinals’ closer, delivering game-winning field goals in consecutive weeks.
With less than half the season completed, Arizona has already matched its win total from the last two seasons, offering fans something they haven’t felt in years: hope.
Heading into Week 8, no team in the NFL had allowed fewer passing yards per game than the Dolphins (154 ypg). But Kyler Murray responded with his best performance of the season, throwing for 307 yards and two touchdowns.
For the first time in a long while, Cardinals fans have reason to believe that the team is finally moving in the right direction—and perhaps even setting up for a playoff push.
Kyler Murray, for the first time in a long time, has over 300 Passing Yards and just drove the Arizona Cardinals from their own 10 yard line to set them up for a game winning field goal
KYLER MURRAY MASTERCLASS IN MIAMI. WHERE ARE ALL THE CALL OF DUTY JOKES AT TODAY?! #BirdGang

Big time win. Kyler was composed all game, MHJ made some timely catches, and Conner continues to do what he does on TOUGH runs.
Happy with that defense all things considered too.
Great win. #BirdGang pic.twitter.com/rXDI9PTR1R

And with that the Cardinals match their 2023 win total in just 8 weeks.
I know we as fans, me included, overreact when things go poorly. But the team is getting better. It’s just a long process. #GoCards #BirdGang
