Quarterback Switch Ignites Rally
Arizona coach Mike LaFleur declined to name his starter for next week after pulling Jacoby Brissett in favor of Gardner Minshew late in the third quarter. The move came with the Cardinals trailing 17-3 and helped turn a sluggish offense around. Arizona scored three times inside the 20-yard line once Minshew entered and completed a 33-30 overtime victory.
Injuries Pile Up During Comeback
The win came at a steep cost as several key players exited. Jeremiyah Love suffered his third ankle injury of the season, Kendrick Bourne left with an ankle issue, and Bam Knight sustained a concussion. Rookie left tackle Jayden Williams hurt his knee while Reggie Virgil injured his lower back. Michael Wilson played through two broken ribs and delivered eight catches for 111 yards plus a touchdown.
Allgeier Carries Heavy Load
With running back options limited, Tyler Allgeier handled a massive workload. He gained 147 rushing yards on 11 carries, including a 63-yard touchdown run and a 52-yard burst, while adding five receptions for 44 yards and a 5-yard score. Kicker Chad Ryland connected on a 42-yard field goal in overtime after missing an extra point that forced the extra period.
