Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray passed for 266 yards and set a team record with 17 consecutive completions as the Cardinals rolled to a 31-6 victory over the New York Jets Sunday in Glendale, Ariz. Murray finished with 22 completions in 24 attempts, throwing for one touchdown and running for two more scores as Arizona (6-4) won its fourth straight and remained in first place in the NFC West. In completing his final 17 passes, Murray broke the team record of 16 straight, set by Carson Palmer.
It is the best start through 10 games for Arizona since it opened the 2021 season with seven straight wins. The Cardinals were sharp against a Jets defense which entered as the fourth-best unit in the league, yielding 290.8 yards per game.
Arizona scored four touchdowns and a field goal on its first five possessions. From there, New York (3-7) never seriously challenged. The Cardinals held the Jets to 207 yards.
It was the third straight home game in which Arizona did not yield a touchdown. Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of 35 passes for 151 yards without a touchdown or an interception for the slumping Jets, who lost for the sixth time in their last seven games. In his fourth game with New York, Davante Adams had six catches for 31 yards on 13 targets.
The Cardinals tallied a touchdown on their opening drive for the sixth time this season, needing just six plays to score as James Conner cashed in on a 1-yard run. The touchdown came two plays after Conner took a misdirection screen from Murra.
