TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) – The Arizona Cardinals are back alone on top of the NFC West. Go figure.
This is a team that took two of the most one-sided beatings in the league this season. Their defense was No. 29 in the NFL, their offense No. 30 after four weeks.
Then they beat the New Orleans Saints 30-20 on Sunday, a victory as unusual as it was unexpected, considering the offense, under the controls of rookie quarterback Max Hall, did not have a rushing or passing touchdown and still beat the Super Bowl champs by double digits.
Now Arizona goes into the bye week at 3-2, a half-game ahead of Seattle in a division the Cardinals have won the past two seasons.
