TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Costly turnovers on offense. Critical breakdowns on defense. Boos from the home crowd.

Sounds like the same old Arizona Cardinals.

After a 31-10 home loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday night, the defending NFC champions are 1-2 heading into their bye week.

The once-feared offense led by Kurt Warner, Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin — Pro Bowlers all — has produced two touchdowns and five turnovers in two home losses.

Coach Ken Whisenhunt and his staff will use the week off to fix problems, starting with an inconsistent offensive line that gave up four sacks to the Colts, two to star defensive end Dwight Freeney.
