The touchdown was scored by the Cards after Andy Dalton's second and third picks of the ball. The time has come.
The team continued to pour it on in the second half to beat the Saints 42-34.
The 42 points the Cards scored is their most in a game since Week 17 of 2016 and the most under coach Kliff. The team's longest home losing streak since 1940 came to an end with the victory.
This win was desperately needed by the Cards. Their offense was anemic and they were on the verge of a tailspin after a 4-2 start.
They put together a performance on national TV with an impressive defensive showing, highlighted by two pick ups and a touchdown. The game was tied at 14 before the first pick-six, but the two pick-sixes put the Cards in control.
The game on Thursday could be a turning point in the season. The man made an impact in his first game since being suspended. He reacclimated to the offense and had 103 yards on 10 catches. The defense needed to find its rhythm against the pass and the offense needed to find its own rhythm in order to turn the season around.
Pick-sixes is what you should describe the game with. The two interception returns for touchdown at the end of the first half gave theCardinals a commanding two-touchdown lead and set them up for the victory.
With 10 days between Thursday night's game and the next game, Robbie Anderson will have plenty of time to understand his role so he can have a bigger part in the offense.
In the first half, the Cards scored 28 points. They had 29 first half points in their first six games.
The next game is at Vikings On October 30th.
The bad tackles, turnovers and ill- timed penalties will be fixed by the Saints. There is a lot of season left to go.
The Saints lost their fifth game in a row. The Saints' defense didn't help matters as the unit that used to be the strength of the team has struggled this season.
Injuries played a part in the outcome, with wide receiver Michael Thomas out and three defensive backs down. Mistakes have followed the Saints from Week 1 and the injuries have been a part of the problem.
