What happened

J.Brissett carved up Dallas early, hitting M.Harrison for chunks of 18 and 20 to set the tone, and the defense closed it out when C.Simon punched the ball loose from J.Williams in the fourth. The blocked punt recovered for a Dallas touchdown was the one ugly stretch, and it didn't matter. A road win with the backup quarterback and a defense getting real push from the interior — the question is whether this version of the Cardinals shows up again next week.
