The Carolina Panthers defeated the Arizona Cardinals 30-20 on Sunday, and while the deciding line was 10 points, an early Panthers defensive touchdown that wasn’t reviewed could have swung the outcome of the game.
Early in the first quarter, a Carson Palmer fumble was returned for a touchdown by linebacker Thomas Davis. On television, it looked as though it was an incomplete pass. Yet the game wasn’t stopped for an official review.
On Monday, Cardinals coach Bruce Arians explained to reporters his take on the play and how a technology blunder resulted in seven points for Carolina.
