However, Chander Catanzaro missed a field goal and the Cardinals defense has not done a good job of getting off the field.
Asa Jackson, signed from the practice squad two weeks ago, sprinted through the middle of the Cardinals’ punt team to block Drew Butler’s punt with 4:40 left in the fourth quarter. In the receiving end, Steve Smith had 137 yards and one touchdown in seven receptions while Forsett added 39 yards in eight catches. Through Week 7 this season, Johnson has 566* yards and three touchdowns; putting him on pace to finish the season with a very respectable 1,294 yards rushing and 7 touchdowns. Carson Palmer completed 29 of 45 passes for 421 yards and one touchdown against to interceptions. They weren’t always on the same page but the Cardinals were able to go to the locker room with the lead. However, Baltimore will still want to play for pride this season and will be hoping to claim their second win of the season today, which would tie them with the AFC North’s third placed side, the Cleveland Browns.
