Monday Night Football: Cardinals End 5-Game Skid with 27-17 Victory Over Uninspiring Cowboys

Jacoby Brissett threw for two touchdowns and ran for a score filling in again for Kyler Murray, and the Arizona Cardinals stopped a five-game losing streak with a 27-17 victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football.

Arizona (3-5) won for just the second time in the past 18 games when Murray didn’t take at least five snaps or sat out entirely.

The Cowboys (3-5-1) couldn’t build on the momentum of Sam Williams’ blocked punt that was recovered in the end zone by Marshawn Kneeland, giving up long touchdown drives on Arizona’s next two possessions on either side of halftime to fall behind 24-7.

Marvin Harrison had a career-high seven catches for 96 yards, including a 4-yarder for the game’s first touchdown. Tight end Trey McBride had a 12-yard TD grab.
