Tennessee rode a wild late surge to beat Arizona in Glendale. Demercado appeared to seal it with a long TD, but fumbled ahead of the goal line, flipping momentum. Cam Ward then wiggled through a rookie red-zone miscue, rebuilt the drive, and found Calvin Ridley for the game-winning field goal. The result hints at a Ward-era spark for Tennessee and exposes Arizona’s fragile hold on the NFC West, with fantasy implications across the board.

The night’s strange sequence—Demercado’s slip, Ward’s risky but redeeming effort, Ridley’s decisive connection—frames a story of momentum shifts and potential breakout candidates. For fantasy managers, Ward’s late drive and Ridley’s deep-ball ceiling become focal points, while the Cardinals’ volatility and the Colts’ recent missteps loom as cautionary reminders of one-play swings.

Arizona's Week 5 collapse reshapes the fantasy landscape: Emari Demercado's 72-yard touchdown was wiped out by review, sparking a Titans rally to a 22-21 win. Demercado carried the load in the absence of Conner and Benson, but a costly fumble and a heated sideline moment with coach Jonathan Gannon cast a cloud over Arizona's backfield plan. The Cardinals' defense also faltered late, amplifying uncertainty for fantasy schedulers heading into next week.

Arizona's 2-3 start took a brutal blow as Demercado’s goal-line fumble helped flip a 28-6 lead into a 22-21 defeat to Tennessee. A late return of momentum, including a critical Titans sequence after a Cardinal turnover, sealed the comeback. Gannon stressed urgency and collective accountability as the clock ticks on a season that’s slipping away in close games.

The loss raises tough questions about finishing games, coaching details, and the Cardinals’ resilience with a demanding slate ahead. Fantasy managers will watch howArizona recalibrates and which players seize upcoming opportunities.

Arizona’s 22-21 home loss to Tennessee ranks as the franchise’s worst in Arizona history, a collapse from a 21-6 fourth-quarter lead. A late sequence featuring Emari Demercado’s nullified TD, Dadrian Taylor-Demerson’s pick that caromed into a Titans TD, and a 38-yard Ridley grab set up Joey Slye’s game-winning 29-yard field goal as time expired.

The loss exposes glaring mental-m toughness issues, with Calais Campbell urging a true fighter response and coach Jonathan Gannon acknowledging this would rigorously test the team’s resolve. For fantasy owners, the Демercado miscue looms large, while Ridley’s big play potential remains a silver lining as Tennessee survives a stumble-prone night.
