Other than a few dings and dents to their key performers Sunday night, the Arizona Cardinals looked very much the part of a Super Bowl contending team in their destruction of Philadelphia on the Eagles home turf.
Tyrann Matheiu landed awkwardly on his knee, Carson Palmer banged his hand on the helmet of an Eagle defender, running back David Johnson had to come out of the game for a brief period after dinging up his knee. Both would return to the game and play a big part in the blowout. Johnson would score three touchdowns, Palmer would throw for 274 yards.
Defensively, Deone Bucannon would return an interception for a touchdown.
With the win, the Cardinals clinch the NFC West title and move to 12-2 overall. They will host the final two games of the regular season against Green Bay and Seattle. Palmer now has 32 tds and just 9 interceptions on the season.
