ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Kyler Murray threw two touchdown passes to Antoine Wesley and the Arizona Cardinals held on to beat the Dallas Cowboys 25-22 in a matchup of playoff-bound teams.

The outcome didn’t do much to change the races for the NFC’s No. 1 seed or the NFC West. But the Cardinals ended a three-game skid a week after backing into the postseason while stopping the NFC East champion’s four-game winning streak.

The wild-card round is guaranteed for both teams since Green Bay’s 37-10 win over Minnesota on Sunday night left the Cowboys and Cardinals with no chance at the NFC’s first-round bye.
