Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray got the best of a much-anticipated showdown with Cleveland quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Murray can thank Kenyan Drake, who scored four touchdowns in Arizona’s 38-24 win over the Browns.

Murray threw for 219 yards and a touchdown and Mayfield threw for 247 yards and two touchdowns.

The two were college teammates at Oklahoma and won Heisman Trophies in back-to-back seasons.

Murray got plenty of help from Drake, who scored a touchdown in each quarter. He’s the first Cardinals player since 1993 to score four rushing touchdowns in a game.
