The Arizona Cardinals were in a battle with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8, and they were the ones who prevailed in overtime. After a last-second touchdown in regulation that tied the game, Chad Ryland had the chance to give the Cardinals the lead to possibly win the game . Unfortunately, he missed it, which was his first extra point miss since 2024.
The game went into overtime, and the Cardinals were able to set themselves up to win on a field goal, and Ryland redeemed himself with the game-winner.
It probably wasn't the way the Cardinals drew it up, but they were able to walk away with the win.

It was a big win for the Cardinals and an even better performance for Minshew, who didn't start the game . He came in for Jacoby Brissett, who struggled in the game, and head coach Mike LaFleur wanted to see if Minshew could give them some juice on offense. He indeed gave them life, and he led four touchdown drives that helped keep the Cardinals in the game.
It'll be interesting to see if Minshew ends up being the starter for the rest of the season, or if LaFleur goes back to Brissett. With the way that Minshew played, the best choice might be to roll with the hot hand.
The Cardinals are now 3-4, and it's safe to say they have some type of life in their season now, but they have a lot of work to do when looking at the division they're in. The San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks are playing well, and the Los Angeles Rams can get hot at any moment now.

This is something the Cardinals can build on, and Minshew may be the answer moving forward.
