Simpson flips for touchdown vs. Cardinals

Dec 25, 2011, 8:33 PM | Updated: 8:35 pm

There’s no doubt that Sunday’s 23-16 loss was a painful one for the Arizona
Cardinals.

They sleepwalked through the first three quarters, falling behind by 23 points,
only to furiously come back in the 4th quarter but missed several
opportunities to steal the game.

Oh, did I mention the loss dashed their slim playoff hopes?

The worst part of it is that Cardinal fans will be reminded of this game
probably for the rest of their lives. That’s because they’ll see the highlight of
Jerome Simpson’s unbelievable touchdown play in the 2nd quarter.

Simpson took a pass from Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton and literally
flipped over Arizona linebacker Daryl Washington into the end zone, and to
top it off, he landed on his feet.
