Those 368 passing yards set a new season-high mark for Purdy. The team also got some help courtesy of Deebo Samuel, who gained 150 total yards and two touchdowns.

Meanwhile, Arizona gave up the first points last Sunday, but they didn't let that get them down. They took down the Steelers 24-10. That looming 24-10 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Arizona yet this season.

The Cardinals can attribute much of their success to Trey McBride, who picked up 89 receiving yards and a touchdown, and James Conner, who rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns. That's the first time this season that Conner punched in two or more rushing touchdowns.
