1st qtr 2:17 3rd and 4 Palmer in shotgun steps up to make an adjustment when Sendlein inexplicably snaps the ball. Palmer's quick reflexes avoid a turnover.

2nd qtr :22 3rd and 7 Jerraud Powers int (due to 6 man inside blitz, (108 qbr vs the blitz my ass)) setting up the Catman field goal and taking away a possible Novak field goal.

3 rd qtr 6:51 3rd and 9 Massey tries to tickle Attaochu enroute to a sack fumble setting up a Ryan Matthews 20 yard td run over Jefferson.
4th qtr 7:34 3rd and 8 Ex-card Rich Ohrnberger snaps past Rivers putting them out of field goal range.

4th qtr 6:12 3rd and 10 Carson Palmer runs for 11 yards

4th qtr 3:17 3rd and 8 Michael Floyd scoops the pass off the ground for a first down, next play John E Smoke takes the wr screen to the end zone (with help from Fanaika and Veldheer, but despite Carlson's whiff)

My takes, it's awesome to see 2 shutdown corners, the only big play to a SD wr I can recall is Malcolm Floyd burning Powers. Run D isn't missing Dansby and Dweed. Never ask Carlson or "take it to the" Housler to block Dwight Freeney. Berman is annoying. Larson is mediocre, Coop needs to step it up. Massey could lose us a game. Never ask Tony Jefferson to man up with an elite tight end. I was pleasantly surprised at how much playing time our first round pick got (I can't recall a defensive snap #36 didn't play), especially in crucial situations, and by how much he played in the box like a blitzing lb. This is probably one of the best offenses we'll see this year and the D was pretty solid.

All big plays, but that one was huge. Palmer calmly bailed us out. That could have been really bad

Palmer was the player of the game. Constantly moving his feet to get out of trouble. At least two time got the first down running.

Yeah he wasn't sharp early in the game but he sure toughed it out and yeah his feet were huge.

Good QB, he has his warts but good player

Just loved John Brown use of blockers on this play. Him and Ellington are elite at getting the most out of their blocks. He danced around until the offensive line made it over, then they just destroyed San Diego's DBs. Very well coached and fun to watch.

Floyds catch hands down. That was clutch.

Yeah, we had no doubt he caught that. If that had been Andre Roberts or somebody I would have had to see the replay before celebrating.

This one:

4th qtr 6:12 3rd and 10 at the 5 Carson Palmer runs for 11 yards

By avoiding the sack and gaining the first down, Palmer saved the game for the Cardinals. This was the beginning of the winning TD drive.
