Stacking wins hasn’t been something the Arizona Cardinals have been used in recent years. In 2024, that’s no longer the case.
Despite looking out of sorts early on, the Cardinals knocked off the Miami Dolphins, 28-27, to secure back-to-back wins for the first time since October 2021.
Much like last week’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers, the Cardinals needed a strong second-half effort and a game-winning Chad Ryland field goal to complete the comeback.
But unlike last week, rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. was a main character in Arizona’s victory.
Turning it on across the final two quarters, Harrison racked up 111 yards and a touchdown on six catches (seven targets). Most of that damage came late in the game.
Along with Harrison, tight end Trey McBride had himself a day with nine catches (11 targets) for 124 yards.
Cardinals with a chance to lead NFC West
With Sunday’s win over the Dolphins, the Cardinals now have a chance to sit atop the NFC West.
It all depends on what the division-leading Seattle Seahawks do against the Buffalo Bills.
A loss moves the Cardinals into sole possession of first place due to division record.
A win keeps Arizona firmly in second place entering Week 9.
