For the eighth time this season, the Patriots failed to score a touchdown in the first quarter. They didn’t wait long in the second to get in the end zone, though.
New England has cut its deficit to 10-7 after James White scored on a 7-yard run only 45 seconds into the second quarter.
White’s run came on fourth-and-two after Gunner Olszewski was stopped for a 1-yard run on an end around on third-and-three.
The Patriots’ seven-play, 46-yard drive was set up by a 53-yard kickoff return by Donte Moncrief after a 47-yard field goal by Zane Gonzalez gave the Cardinals a 10-0 lead.
