The Arizona Cardinals and the Seattle Seahawks produced one of the most thrilling encounters of the season on Sunday, with the Cardinals emerging with a tightly-contested, 37-34 overtime win. Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray had a huge performance for his squad, and the 23-year-old spoke out about his team's outstanding comeback victory in his post-game presser.
According to Murray, he was just happy to have been part of what turned out to be a memorable matchup. Clearly, this win is not one that the former Oklahoma standout is going to forget anytime soon.
“These are the games you honestly dream about growing up, watching ‘Sunday Night Football' last week, playing on Monday,” Murray said, via Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. “These are the games that you want to be a part of, and to be a part of these games, you gotta win, and you gotta keep winning.
“So I'm just super proud of the team, the way we fought, not giving up, no matter the circumstances, just keep battling, keep battling. And that's what we did. So I think that's huge for us to take that next step.”
Murray completed 34 out of his 38 passes for 360 yards in the Cardinals' win on Sunday. He also had three touchdowns against one interception, while also rushing for 67 yards and a touchdown. The reigning AP Offensive Rookie of the Year came up with a key play in the fourth period, as he led the Cardinals to a game-tying field goal that sent the game to overtime.
This win improves Arizona's record to 5-2, as they bounce back impressively from last week's 31-21 defeat at the hands of the Carolina Panthers.
