Top 5 Tyrann Mathieu Arizona Cardinals moments
By Scott Allen
4. Interception against Cowboys – 2014
The Cardinals were making their push for the postseason and it had to go through the Dallas Cowboys at Cowboys Stadium. No problem, at least none for Mathieu.
The Cardinals were in the midst of a run that would have them finish 11-5 and go to the playoffs in 2014. This road victory 28-17 may have been the sweetest of the season.
Sure, the Cowboys were missing Tony Romo on this Sunday but the game still had to be played. Brandon Weeden was in a giving mood as he threw one of his passes to Mathieu.
Mathieu ran the interception back for just nine-yards but the fact he came up with a big play against the Cowboys was huge. He also had four tackles on this day.
The interception helped the Cardinals to a 6-1 record at the time with the only loss to the Denver Broncos. It was Mathieu’s only interception of the season, coming off his first ACL injury from the prior December.
