The Arizona Cardinals had a powerful 1st half, top the New York Giants 20- at halftime. They extended their lead to 28-7 early in the third quarter. Even so, they suffered a considerable collapse and had been outscored 24- for the remainder of the game, resulting in a 31-28 loss in regulation. Head coach Jonathan Gannon took complete duty for the defeat, acknowledging that the defensive side struggled and that he must have prevented the group from losing momentum immediately after halftime.

Regardless of acknowledging the work and intensity displayed by the group, Gannon emphasized the value of enhancing their coaching methods to stay clear of comparable second-half collapses.
