What we learned in Cardinals' comeback win over 49ers

Kent Somers breaks down what we learned in the Cardinals' comeback victory over the 49ers on Sunday at State Farm Stadium.

Offense

The Cardinals mucked around for the better part of three quarters. By the start of the fourth, they had gained 135 yards and scored only three points. New offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich did install some new wrinkles. There were far more screen passes to running back David Johnson than in previous weeks. And Johnson occasionally gained a few yards running the ball. Leftwich did a solid job of getting plays called in a timely manner, which had been a problem over the first seven games.
