The Cardinals trailed the Green Bay Packers 24-10 at halftime in Week 6 and it was another game in which the defense didn’t do much.
Green Bay did whatever they wanted.
The Cardinals allowed 24 points, 266 yards, 14 first downs, 37 plays and the Packers possessed the ball more than 19 minutes of the half.
They had no sacks in the first half and allowed 7.2 yards per play. The Packers converted on 3-of-6 third downs and once on fourth down.
After forcing a first-drive punt, the Packers scored on four consecutive possessions. Packers quarterback Jordan Love had three first-half touchdown passes.
Arizona showed a little life with an interception at the end of the first half, but it came when the Green Bay receiver slipped.
The Cardinals would receive the second-half kickoff. They held the 49ers scoreless in the second half in Week 5. Can they do it again?
