GLENDALE, Ariz. – Kyler Murray ran for a 44-yard touchdown to lead the Cardinals on a drive that set up Chad Ryland’s 32-yard field goal as time expired, and Arizona rallied for a 17-15 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night.

Cameron Dicker made his fifth field goal of the night – this one from 40 yards out – to give the Chargers a 15-14 lead with 1:54 to go. But the Cardinals (3-4) quickly got within field goal range, helped by an unnecessary roughness call on Cam Hart that cost Los Angeles (3-3) 15 yards.

Arizona followed that with a bruising 33-yard run by James Conner, who finished with 101 yards on the ground. That ultimately set up Ryland’s short field goal and a Cardinals celebration.

It was a frustrating night for the Chargers’ offense, which gained 395 yards but couldn’t find the end zone. Justin Herbert completed 27 of 39 passes for 349 yards.

Dicker hit field goals of 59, 50, 28, 47 and 40 yards, the first of which tied a franchise record for distance.

Murray ran for a spectacular touchdown early in the fourth quarter, he rolled to his left before turning on the jets, beat safety Junior Colston to the sideline and then drove into the end zone for a 14-9 lead.

It was Murray’s second long touchdown run in three weeks after he scored on a 50-yard dash against San Francisco. It was also Murray’s 20th career game with a touchdown pass and run.

Murray completed 14 of 26 passes for 145 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Dicker’s 28-yarder late in the third quarter gave the Chargers a 9-7 lead. Los Angeles gained possession after stopping Cardinals backup quarterback Clayton Tune on third-and-1 and fourth-and-1. The Cardinals sometimes use Tune in short-yardage situations because he is bigger than Murray.

Arizona scored on a 5-yard touchdown pass from Murray to Greg Dortch in the second quarter to make it 7-6 at halftime. It was Dortch’s first touchdown catch of the season.

Dicker made two field goals for the Chargers in the first half, including the 59-yarder. That was the longest kick of Dicker’s career, after he previously made two from 55 meters.

Los Angeles was able to put away some great opportunities early in the first quarter.

On Arizona’s opening drive, Murray caught a pass that was deflected by Khalil Mack and intercepted by Teair Tait. The 304-pound defensive lineman started running down the field but was stripped from behind by Conner before Arizona’s Michael Wilson picked up the fumble.

Then, on the Chargers’ first drive, Herbert hit Jalen Reagor for a 42-yard gain, but Arizona’s Starling Thomas stripped Reagor and the ball bounced into the end zone for a touchback.
