Cardinals Hit New Low With 17 Penalties in 49ers Loss as Questions Grow Around Gannon

Mounting injuries, penalties, defensive regression eroded the disciplined identity Gannon built in 2024.

Overview

  • The 41-22 defeat to San Francisco included a franchise-record 17 penalties, the most by any NFL team in a game this season.
  • Arizona dropped to 3-7 after allowing 40-plus points in consecutive games for the first time since 2002.
  • Jacoby Brissett set an NFL regular-season single-game mark with 47 completions, finishing with 452 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.
  • Jonathan Gannon said he is not doing a good enough job and called his job status “not a controllable,” as local coverage reports owner Michael Bidwill may be running out of patience.
  • The Cardinals lead the league with 18 players on injured lists as Kyler Murray remains on IR, and breakdowns on defense and special teams included a kickoff returned to the 1-yard line.
