Vikings exhale with pressure-packed losing streak snapped against Cardinals

It took touchdowns in all three phases and two late stands by the defense, but the Vikings stopped their slide Sunday with a wild 30-23 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Down 30-17, the Cardinals pulled back within one score midway through the fourth quarter after their star pass rusher, Chandler Jones, blew by left tackle T.J. Clemmings and knocked the ball out of Bradford's right hand as he attempted to throw.

The Cardinals recovered the fumble at 27-yard line and six plays later quarterback Carson Palmer hit do-it-all running back David Johnson for a 4-yard touchdown.

After a Vikings three-and-out, the Cardinals got the ball back near midfield.
