1. Touchdown winner

In what was probably the most exciting moment of the 2018 Cardinals season, this top play was a game-winner.  When the fourth quarter of this one started, it didn’t seem like this play was probable, even possible.

After a 49ers kicker Robbie Gould field goal put them up 15-3 a minute and a half into the quarter, it looked like another loss for the Cardinals.  Then, they woke up.

A Rosen to Fitzgerald touchdown two minutes later brought the game to a 15-10 score.  It stayed that way until 34 seconds left in the game.

Next. Cardinals hire offensive line coach. dark

That’s when Rosen hit Kirk in the back of the end zone for a nine-yard touchdown pass and a subsequent two-point conversion from Rosen to Fitz to give the Cardinals a 18-15 lead.  The 49ers did not score in those final seconds.  The Cardinals had a season sweep of the 49ers and improved to 2-6 at the time.
