Sitting at 4-8 on the season, the Arizona Cardinals will not be making the postseason and are in the beginning stages of major change.
While there were little to no hopes to begin with, the Cards needed to win this game to have an outside shot at a playoff birth. The remaining schedule is pretty light, so there was still a small chance.
Instead, the Cards choked away a game they were winning by 7 for most of the fourth quarter. Chargers QB Justin Herbert found Austin Ekeler for a touchdown late and then tight end Gerald Everett for the game-winning two-point conversion.
There were a couple of studs in the game for Arizona, but there were more duds.
