What happened: The Arizona Cardinals defense stuffed a 4th-and-1 conversion attempt to force a turnover on downs during Sunday's regular-season game.

Why it matters: Turning away the short-yardage play protects Arizona's slim in-progress margin and hands possession back to the Cardinals offense.

What to watch: Arizona takes over on offense looking to extend its 12-9 lead as play continues.
