From this Cardinals’ fan’s perspective, the end of last week's first half versus the Lions was an abject study in frustration.
Here were my emotions and thoughts as each play transpired, from 3:02 on the clock to 0:29.
Lions 20-13 Cardinals (Sep 22, 2024) Play-by-Play - ESPN
The score: 13-7 Lions
Knowing the Lions were going to receive the football to start the 2nd half, I was fervently hoping, just as you were, that the Cardinals’ defense could force a punt that would give the Cardinals’ offense the potential to take a 1-point lead at half-time.
