Cardinals Defeat Chargers 26-14 in Complete Week 1 Performance

Arizona's 26-14 win over Los Angeles on Sept. 13 delivered 393 yards, strong possession control, and timely defensive and special-teams plays in Mike LaFleur's debut. Follow-up reviews emphasize the motion-heavy offense, McBride's central role, defensive execution, and remaining concerns with red-zone efficiency, penalties, Harrison's quiet opener, and injuries to Melton and Crawford.
