2019 Cardinals countdown: 93 days until Week 1

The Arizona Cardinals will begin their 2019 at home in 93 days against the Detroit Lions. We continue our countdown to the opener with a look at a statistic in team history with the number of the countdown?

What is our stat for No. 93?

Two players have scored exactly 93 points in a season for the Cardinals.

The first was kicker Jim Bakken in 1976. He made 33 extra points and 20 field goals for 93 points. He was selected to the Pro Bowl that year and was a first-team All-Pro, but that was only his sixth-best scoring year in his career.

The second was kicker Neil O’Donaghue, who also scored 93 points in 1981 by making 36 extra points and 19 field goals. It was his top season in scoring in his six-year career with the Cardinals.

We will be back tomorrow with a stat for No. 92.
