The Arizona Cardinals have emerged as contenders in the NFL playoff race after a thrilling 28-27 victory over the Miami Dolphins, thanks to a standout performance from quarterback Kyler Murray.
With this win, the Cardinals have secured back-to-back victories for the first time since 2021, sharing the NFC West lead with the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks. Coach Jonathan Gannon emphasized the growing confidence of his team, particularly in clutch situations.
While Murray's performance has been pivotal, contributions from tight end Trey McBride and rookie receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. have also been significant. However, the defense struggled against the Dolphins, allowing high third-down conversion rates.
