Following two delays due to inclement weather, the Arizona Cardinals secured a 24-10 victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers. During halftime at Acrisure Stadium, unexpected heavy wind and rain caused an extension of more than 30 minutes. The second delay lasted nearly an hour, with the Cardinals leading 17-3 midway through the third quarter.
During the delays, Pittsburgh players utilized the time as an extended halftime, trying to stay warm while coaches brainstormed adjustments. On the other hand, the Cardinals engaged in a dance-off to maintain a high energy level while aiming for their third win of the season.
Coach Jonathan Gannon praised the team’s focus and handling of the disjointed situation during the delays. The break in play, due to harsh weather conditions, disrupted the flow of the game. Players had to take cover when wind and rain intensified. However, they remained focused and were ready to resume play whenever called upon.
Despite the disruptions, both squads attempted to return to the game with a business mindset. While Pittsburgh did not perform at their best, head coach Mike Tomlin did not attribute their lackluster performance to the delays. He emphasized that the delays were unforeseen and affected both teams equally.
As the skies cleared, rainbows appeared on both sides of Acrisure Stadium, symbolizing the game’s resilience despite the challenging weather.
