If they lost to Seattle, much of the conversation this week would be on the way Kliff Kingsbury handled overtime. Arizona had a second-and-15 from the Seattle 23 with 2:47 left. Rather than try to run the ball, get closer and maybe even score a touchdown, Kingsbury decided to attempt a 41-yard field goal on second down. To Kingsbury's credit, he admitted after the game that he got too conservative. Regardless, that was a resilient effort. The Cardinals have won three in a row, and their plus-57 point differential is second in the NFC.

They are a legit playoff contender. The offense is dynamic, but the defense still has some issues that need to be fixed.

Not often that you rack up 519 yards ... and still get outgained by 53. Also not often you see a young QB as fiery and gifted as Kyler Murray.

Who needs to step up: RB Chase Edmonds

Even if Kenyan Drake's ankle injury isn't serious, Edmonds will still need to keep playing like he did during Sunday night's win over the Seahawks. Edmonds gained 145 total yards, had a major impact in overtime and helped kick-start the Cardinals' run game. He showed, yet again, that he can handle whatever is thrown at him. If the Cardinals want to make a run to the playoffs, Edmonds will need to play a significant role. -- Josh Weinfuss

An incredible comeback win for Kyler Murray and the Cardinals, who rolled up 519 yards on the Seahawks and became the first team this season to put a dent in Seattle's previously impervious Let Russ Cook campaign. The Cardinals were gashed for 572 total yards -- including 300 yards of total offense by Russell Wilson in the first half alone -- but they also forced the star QB into three interceptions, including the Isiah Simmons pick in overtime that set up Zane Gonzalez's game-winner. The defense also forced Seattle into two punts in the drives preceding the Simmons interception, a stand that allowed Arizona to wipe out a 34-24 deficit with less than seven minutes to play in regulation. A thrilling win that raises the bar in the desert.
