Cardinals, Johnson run away from Jets

Arians gave the entire offensive front a game ball, including the tight ends.

"It's always been 'Scratch where it itches, ' you know?" Of his 111 rushing yards, 84 came before first contact, including his 58 yard touchdown run on which he was untouched, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

The Jets can change quarterbacks if they want, and actually a strong argument can be made to do so.

"It was a little weird", Palmer said.

"Once you start running the football in four, five, six yards a clip, that safety starts coming up and they start diving down, you can get some single coverage behind, and I think I did a good job", wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald said.

The Jets' Ryan Fitzpatrick completed nine of his 19 passes in the first half and finished with 16 of 31 for 174 yards.

GM Steve Keim thinks Floyd is starting to return to the player the Cardinals thought he can be. He's a heck of a player and I always say, "You've got to feed the monster" because when you put the ball in his hands, good things are going to happen. Last night I was extremely impressed with the energy that J.J. Nelson showed when he came in.

The trade makes ideal sense as the Chiefs have a plethora of running backs, so many that Davis can't even see the field, and Green Bay has a need at the position. "Every (play) we have has a deep ball in it".

But there have been hardly any of those big passing plays that have been so common in the past.

Consecutive victories over the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets are not enough to warrant declaring things turned around, as those teams have combined for just two wins almost halfway through the 2016 season.

Wisconsin took control of this game early with a string of surprisingly explosive plays to move the ball down the field. And their quarterback JT Barrett made just enough plays when they needed it most to help the Buckeyes come out on top.

The Cardinals had Earl Watford and John Wetzel as their starting guards against the Jets.

For Smith, it was his first appearance of the season and he was clearly not in form, tossing an interception and committing a fumble in limited action.

However, the Cardinals beating both of them - handily - and improving their record to 3-3 in the process is, if nothing else, a step in the right direction.

The Cardinals have rushed for at least 170 yards in consecutive games for the first time since 1988, the team's first season in Arizona, in wins that evened the team's record at 3-3.

Arizona limited NY to just 230 net yards of offense while forcing two turnovers.

Sadly, Brandon's catch was the only good news the Jets got all night.

Actually, it was one Super Bowl ring in eight National Football League seasons, but obviously, Bowles didn't take the advice. Arizona also did a great job sealing the edge to prevent Fitzpatrick from taking off when the pocket started to collapse.

Special teams coach Joe DeCamillis was named interim head coach during Kubiak's absence and was in charge when the Broncos (4-2) lost 21-13 at San Diego on Thursday night. Losing games at this point in the season can only help the team get closer to a very high draft pick where they can maybe get the franchise quarterback that's eluded this franchise for so long.

Head coach Todd Bowles eventually replaced Skrine with Darryl Roberts.

It was so bad for Fitzpatrick in the 28-3 loss to the Arizona Cardinals that the veteran was benched in favor of Geno Smith. The Cardinals utilized a handful of inside slant routes to perfection to get Palmer going early.
