JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Kurt Warner completed his first 15 passes, broke the NFL's single-game record for completion percentage and then headed to the bench.

He almost had to re-enter the game.

Warner was 24 of 26 for 243 yards, with two touchdowns, and the Arizona Cardinals dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars in a 31-17 victory Sunday.

Jacksonville trailed 24-3 after two quarters -- the largest halftime deficit at home in team history -- and was down 28 points before mounting a mild comeback.

The only good news for the Jaguars? Hardly anyone in Jacksonville saw it. The game was blacked out on local television, and the stands were about half full.
