Once again, the Arizona Cardinals came out fast and scored on their opening drive. It’s all the other drives we have to worry about.
Thanks to newly acquired running back Kenyan Drake, who rattled off a 36-yard run, then a horse collar penalty on the the San Francisco 49ers, it was 7-0 quickly. After that though, the 49ers took control.
The Cardinals still only found themselves down 14-7 with 4 seconds left in the first half. The 49ers ran the clock down to that point to try one last shot into the end zone from the 1-yard line.
