Cardinals Crushed by Lions, Fall to 1-4

Detroit defeated Arizona 45-21 in Week 5 after the Cardinals scored on their opening possession. The Lions then produced 31 unanswered points and seven straight scoring drives, prompting scrutiny of the offensive approach, quarterback plan and organizational direction. Mike LaFleur has since said there will be no immediate playcalling or role changes, and Jacoby Brissett remains the starter.
