The Cardinals (4-2), who have seldom won at Giants Stadium, put together 17 consecutive points in the second and third quarters -- the final seven after Manning was intercepted -- to take a 24-14 lead with 2:32 left in the third quarter as they posted their third straight win.New York (5-2) could muster only a field goal in the final quarter with its last two drives ending in a fumble and an interception.
“Our defense played great today. We made enough plays on offense to get a win,” Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner, who passed for 231 yards and a touchdown, told reporters.
Arizona, the defending NFC champions, moved into first place in the West Division with the victory while New York remained atop the NFC East despite its second consecutive loss following a 5-0 start. Safety Adrian Wilson sparked the aggressive Arizona defense, making a key third quarter interception.
Wilson picked off a Manning pass at the Giants 24 and three plays later Jason Wright scored on a six-yard pass from Warner as the Cardinals went up 24-14.
