That issue aside, ranked 1st or 31st, we can't expect to give up 30 points a game and win. That's the first game they've given up more than 24. On the flipside, most people are complaining about how bad the offense looked, but they still put up 31, tied for their fourth highest scoring game this season (we put 36 on the Chiefs, 34 on the Bills, 33 on the Raiders and 31 on Cleveland). Three of those four are top 10 defenses.

The Cardinals were missing Michael Floyd who had 1 or 2 TDs in their last 4 games, so that MIGHT have offset the loss of Jones.  Maybe, but that skinny little Nelson guy really stepped up.  Ida know, they're deep and have a good coaching/GM combo that helps offset some of that bad luck that we don't.

I have to say our offense and defense both looked good for the most part seeing as the Cardinals are #1 on one side of the ball and #3 on the other.  We could also argue the game was closer than it could have been if Patrick Peterson hadn't sprained his ankle.
