Inspector Gadget

Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt is known for calling gadget plays, but the Cardinals haven't surprised anyone with them this year.

They tried one in the third quarter Sunday night, and it almost worked. On second and 2 from the Giants 40, cornerback Antrel Rolle entered the game in the wildcat formation.

He took the direct snap, rolled right and threw long to receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who had to pause to catch it. Fitzgerald was tackled at the goal line but never had control of the ball and it was incomplete.

It didn't matter, anyway. The play was negated by a holding call on tight end Ben Patrick.
