Cardinals Report Card: Arizona did a lot of things right on Sunday vs. the Chargers, but not enough, especially at the end.

Cardinals insider Bob McManaman hands out his position-by-position grades for the Cardinals following their game Sunday against the Chargers:Kyler Murray completed 18 of 29 passes for 191 yards and two touchdowns. He was intercepted once – on a fourth-and-short situation in Arizona territory – underthrowing DeAndre Hopkins on a deep ball that Derwin James Jr. picked off. Other than that, Murray did enough in this game for the Cardinals to win.

, the Cardinals played hard the entire game. They just didn’t make enough stops when it mattered most.Matt Prater missed a 49-yard field goal that would have given the Cardinals a 20-14 edge midway through the third quarter. That’s not the worst of it, though. After the Cardinals had taken a 24-17 lead on Conner’s 6-yard TD reception, the punt coverage team allowed a 20-yard return by Carter and rookie Christian Matthew was also flagged for running out of bounds on the play for a 5-yard penalty.
