First Quarter
The opening quarter saw both teams testing each other's defenses. The Cardinals managed to hold their ground with Walter Nolen III making a significant impact by recording a sack and contributing to three tackles. However, it was clear that the Texans were determined to set an aggressive tone early on.
Second Quarter
In the second quarter, Trey McBride emerged as a key player for the Redbirds. He caught two touchdown passes from Jacoby Brissett, showcasing his ability to break through defensive lines with ease. Despite McBride's efforts and his impressive tally of 134 receiving yards on 12 receptions, Arizona struggled to contain Houston's offensive surge.
Third Quarter
As play resumed after halftime, Michael Carter attempted to bolster Arizona's rushing attack with his consistent performance of gaining first downs and accumulating 56 rushing yards. Yet, turnovers plagued the Birds as Jalen Brooks lost possession once during this period which further tilted momentum towards Houston.
Fourth Quarter
The final quarter highlighted what went wrong for Arizona Cardinals: their inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities despite having multiple red zone attempts throughout this matchup against an efficient Texan defense led by C.J Stroud who orchestrated several successful drives downfield resulting in touchdowns that sealed their win convincingly over visiting opponents from Phoenix area.
