Mathieu intercepted new Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett on the first play from scrimmage in the extra period, and Dawson made a 30-yard field goal four plays later to give the Cardinals a 16-13 victory.
"I've played long enough to know a win's a win and we have to enjoy it," Palmer said. "It doesn't matter how you get it done, but we got it done."
Cardinals: Played without left tackle D.J. Humphries, left guard Mike Iupati or running back David Johnson, who has already had wrist surgery. But Arians didn't report new injuries form the game.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Carson Palmer managed to get the Arizona Cardinals into overtime Sunday,Football Jerseys Cheap. Tyrann Mathieu and Phil Dawson made sure they got out of Indianapolis pretty darn quick.
Yes,Cheap Adidas Shoes Wholesale, everyone played a role as the Cardinals (1-1) avoided their first 0-2 start since 2005.
All Indy could muster after that was a chip shot field goal from Adam Vinatieri with 11:42 left in regulation for a 13-3 lead. Brissett was 20 of 37 for 216 yards in his third career start — his first with the Colts, who acquired him in a Sept. 2 trade.
INJURIES
Palmer followed that with by getting Dawson into position for the tying field goal and they expected to be the winner.
The Colts never trailed until the final play despite struggling in the red zone and being unable to close it out on offense or defense.
"The defense saved me," Dawson said. "Missed one with the game on the line and the game could have turned out another way."
Colts: Tight end Jack Doyle caught eight passes for 79 yards, while Indy's wide receivers had a combined nine catches for 98 yards. Malik Hooker got his first interception in his first career start. Brissett also was sacked four times.
Arizona's defense allowed scoring drives of 14, eight and 16 plays, but kept Brissett and the Colts out of the end zone for the final 52 minutes before Mathieu came up with the play of the game by undercutting Colts receiver Kamar Aiken.
Indy simply blew it.
Vinatieri's 29-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter broke another NFL record. He now has 177 field goals from 20 to 29 yards, one more than Morten Andersen.
Now coach Chuck Pagano must dig his way out of a fourth consecutive 0-2 start, perhaps the most frustrating yet because of how it slipped away.
Instead, the Cardinals needed Mathieu's interception and Dawson's second chance.
RECORD BREAKER
Palmer did not respond to the critique.
Palmer seemed to be out of sync with his receivers most of the day, but made just enough plays in the final eight minutes of regulation to give the Cardinals a chance. He was 16 of 39 with 332 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
Colts: An already banged-up secondary pressed Indy into giving Hooker and cornerback Quincy Wilson, their top two draft picks, their first career starts. Pagano said the Colts came out injury-free, too.
"The quarterback has to play better. It's that simple," coach Bruce Arians said. "And we have to block better."
Then, Palmer started playing vintage football.
