    Bruce Arians is 1-0 at home as Arizona's coach, thanks to a stout defensive stand and a late pass interference penalty that doomed the Detroit Lions.

    The penalty against Bill Bentley in the end zone set up Rashard Mendenhall's 1-yard touchdown run with 1:59 to play Sunday in the Cardinals' 25-21 victory.

    Jay Feely kicked four field goals and Carson Palmer threw a 36-yard touchdown pass to rookie Andre Ellington for Arizona (1-1). Ellington also had a 16-yard catch to start the deciding drive.

    Matthew Stafford connected with Calvin Johnson on touchdown plays of 72 and 3 yards, and DeAndre Levy returned an interception 66 yards for a score for Detroit (1-1), which led 21-13 midway through the third quarter.
