Larry Fitzgerald takes over for Cardinals in overtime (Video)
Larry Fitzgerald had one of those moments Saturday night where you knew he was going to do everything possible to ensure his team won.
Fitz caught a pass from Carson Palmer on the first play from scrimmage in overtime and went through the Packers’ defense, nearly scoring a touchdown.

That stiffarm was reminiscent of Marshawn Lynch against the Saints. I was surprised he didn’t score on the play. But he took care of it on a surprising shovel pass two plays later:

Fitz gave us the type of memorable moment in overtime that will help us remember his career. He finished with eight catches for 176 yards and a score. As if that weren’t enough, Fitz capped it all off with a classy shoutout in his postgame interview.
