Palmer Cardinals hold off Seahawks comeback in win

*The came back from a 19-point deficit, but couldn't contain and the late in the fourth quarter as Arizona took control of the NFC West, . *The almost literally fumbled this one away. Palmer was in the fourth quarter, and the took advantage, converting both of those fumbles into touchdowns to swing an eight-point deficit into a four-point lead. The pocket around Palmer collapsed under an intense pa s rush from and blitzing linebackers, and the Herman Moore Jersey quarterback looked frazzled for the first time all game. Errors like that will kill Arizona against teams that don't give away games in the fourth quarter. When he wasn't kicking fumbles to the opposing team, Palmer (29-for-48, 363 yards, 3 Joel Heath Jersey TDs, 1 INT) looked efficient as always, taking the top off the Seattle secondary, throwing well-lofted balls to his receivers and making their great performances po sible. His resurgent comeback year continues. Late game woes, meet the . Oh, you already know each other? Once again, Seattle blew a fourth-quarter lead -- albeit, this one lasted for just over four minutes -- and lost another heartbreaker. In fact, in all five of Seattle's lo ses this year, the have held a lead in the fourth quarter. If Seattle mi ses out on the playoffs -- and at 4-5, they just might -- it will rightly be because they could not close out close games. and the offense still aren't "back." Seattle struggled out of the gate and only came on in the second half for a brief period of time. Hampered by an abdominal injury, (8 Nick Williams Jersey rush, 42 yards) struggled to get going once again; expensive acquisition caught just three balls for 41 yards; and save for a few out-of-pocket touch pa ses, Wilson struggled to connect with receivers en route to a 44 completion percentage. We keep waiting for the to return to the consistent, aggre sive offensive formula from their runs. More than halfway through 2015, it looks like they never will. had himself an evening. The ' best receiver not named made sure the vaunted Legion of Boom knew his name Sunday night. First, Floyd burned and on a pretty streak down the right sideline and toe-tapped in the corner . Then he left in the CenturyLink rubber-pellet dust on a streak down D'Andre Swift Jersey the left sideline, hauled in a perfect Palmer heave and . Floyd compiled seven catches for 113 yards and two touchdowns before leaving with a hamstring injury. (For what it's worth, Fitzgerald posted a measly 10 catches for 130 yards, but when is that news?) It also should be noted that backup wideout -- no relation to fellow wide receiver -- came down with in the fourth quarter that moved the chains and kept Seattle off the field. He was a nice addition to the offense. For the first time since 2012, the will not reign supreme atop the NFC West -- probably. The way the are playing, the three games separating Seattle from Arizona in the lo s column look insurmountable. The still have Pittsburgh, Minnesota and another battle with Arizona on their docket and, despite the skill on defense, their offense has yet to put up a consistent, balanced attack that can win competitive games. Barring a devastating injury in the desert, the should be hosting a playoff game in Dan Campbell Jersey January.
