Video summary

Press to jump

  1. 3:10Shemar James intercepts Jacoby Brissett and returns the ball deep into Arizona territory.
  2. 6:17Dak Prescott finds Ryan Flournoy for a touchdown as Dallas builds its lead.
  3. 11:00Tyler Allgeier breaks loose for a 63-yard Arizona touchdown run.
  4. 12:35Gardner Minshew connects with Allgeier near the pylon as Arizona closes the gap.
  5. 17:48The late-regulation touchdown sequence begins here, followed by a consequential extra-point attempt.
  6. 19:00Overtime brings an Arizona punt and a Josh Sweat sack of Prescott.

Michael Wilson catches the touchdown that brings Arizona level, only for Chad Ryland's extra-point attempt to sail wide left. Instead of settling the game, the Cardinals have another period to play in Arlington.

That sequence caps Gardner Minshew's comeback in the NFL's "Arizona Cardinals vs. Dallas Cowboys Highlights | NFL 2026 Season Week 8," which drew nearly 780,000 views in six hours, far beyond the channel's usual start for regular videos.

Dallas supplies plenty of the early highlights. Shemar James intercepts Jacoby Brissett deep in Arizona territory, Dak Prescott finds Ryan Flournoy for a touchdown, and Prescott later runs into the end zone himself. Arizona's answer includes Tyler Allgeier breaking free for a long touchdown run before becoming a receiving target for Minshew near the pylon.

Minshew also finds Trey McBride for a touchdown before the late connection with Wilson. Even reaching overtime doesn't end the defensive drama: Josh Sweat sacks Prescott after Dallas forces an Arizona punt.

The comments focus on Minshew's touchdown passes, Dallas's inability to protect its advantage and the improbability of Arizona's recovery. One longtime Cardinals supporter describes the team's refusal to give up as the part that mattered most.

It is a busy set of highlights for the league's official channel beyond this game, too. Cleveland-Pittsburgh, Minnesota-Detroit and Baltimore-Buffalo all drew unusually large early audiences. Alongside the full Vikings-Lions highlights, the NFL posted a separate upload devoted to that game's ending.
