24. team. 32. . W, 23-0 vs. Giants. Previous: . Arizona Cardinals
Sure, it might have been against the Giants, and they’re terrible. But any shutout in the NFL is worthwhile news.
That’s what the Cardinals did, and there’s a notable difference with quarterback Drew Stanton under center instead of Blaine Gabbert. Stanton went 20-of-34 for 209 yards for two touchdowns, albeit against two interceptions.
Heck, even wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald got in on the passing:

Fitzgerald finished with nine receptions for 119 yards and a touchdown, though, and that’s where we’d like to see him contribute. As long as he’s on the field, Arizona has a change.
Credit the beleaguered Cardinals defense for forcing three turnovers too, although this group has way more questions than answers heading into an uncertain offseason.
