The Arizona Cardinals, looking for a fourth straight win, showed up offensively in the first half against the New York Jets and their very tough defense.

They built a 24-6 halftime lead and basically did whatever they wanted when they had the ball.

The Jets entered the game fourth in the NFL in total defense, allowing just 290.8 per game, and 10th in scoring, allowing 20.3.

The Cardinals racked up 239 yards of offense and scored on every drive for 24 points in the half.

The Jets entered game No. 2 in pass defense giving up just 158.2 yards per game.

Kyler Murray completed 17 of 19 passes in the first half for 199 yards and a touchdown. They had 192 net passing yards in the half, 34 more yards than the Jets have allowed per game.

Running back James Conner led all pass catchers with four receptions for 71 yards in the half, followed by Marvin Harrison Jr. with four for 48, while Trey McBride caught three passes for 48 yards (and added another hustle defender to his resume).

They also rushed for 47 yards in the half, led by Trey Benson’s 28 yards on four attempts.
