The Arizona Cardinals defeated the Dallas Cowboys 33-30 in overtime Sunday, overcoming an 11-point halftime deficit with a 20-point fourth quarter before delivering the deciding field goal at AT&T Stadium. Tyler Allgeier’s 147 rushing yards and Michael Wilson’s 111 receiving yards headlined Arizona’s offensive effort in a Week 8 comeback that brought both teams to 3-5.

For Dallas, a promising afternoon became a missed opportunity. The Cowboys led after each of the first three quarters, but Arizona kept the game within reach and produced its biggest scoring burst when there was little room left for error.

Arizona Finds Its Finish After Dallas Starts Strong

Dallas established a 7-0 first-quarter advantage and added another seven points in the second. Arizona managed only three points before halftime, leaving the Cardinals facing a 14-3 deficit on the road. At that stage, the Cowboys had controlled the scoreboard, while Arizona needed a much more productive second half.

The Cardinals began closing the gap in the third quarter, outscoring Dallas 7-3 to make it 17-10 entering the fourth. That seven-point margin set up a tense finish: Arizona was back within one possession, but the Cowboys still held the lead.

Then the scoring accelerated. Arizona posted 20 fourth-quarter points, while Dallas answered with 13. The teams combined for 33 points in that period alone, finishing regulation tied 30-30. Whatever advantage Dallas had built early was gone, and the outcome would require another period.

Overtime Supplies the Deciding Margin

After that high-scoring fourth quarter, overtime came down to Arizona’s three unanswered points. The Cardinals’ field goal supplied the winning margin, while Dallas finished the extra period scoreless. Arizona had completed the comeback, turning a difficult first half into a valuable road victory.

The supplied game data does not identify the winning kicker, kick distance or drive sequence. It also does not detail turnovers, sacks, red-zone stops, fourth-down conversions or two-point attempts, so those individual moments cannot be reliably reconstructed.
