Cardinals...28 Texans...21
Key: Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie returned an interception 49 yards for a touchdown to put Arizona ahead with 2:20 to go after Matt Schaub had rallied Houston from a 21-0 halftime deficit. The Cardinals held three times at their one-yard line in the final minute.
Cardinals said: “The defense bailed us out. We’re just glad those guys came to our rescue.” -- Larry Fitzgerald, wide receiver
Texans said: “When we got to the one, we should have scored on the second play. We should have scored on the pass and on the last run. We have to be good enough to make a yard in the National Football League when it counts.” -- Gary Kubiak, coach
