PHOENIX - The Arizona Cardinals ended the Buffalo Bills' unbeaten start to the season with a surprisingly easy 41-17 victory on Sunday.

The Bills' loss after four wins left the NFL with only two undefeated teams -- the Tennessee Titans (5-0) and the New York Giants (4-0).

Buffalo completed all but three plays without starting quarterback Trent Edwards, who suffered a concussion early in the game and did not return. He was replaced by J.P. Losman.

Meanwhile, Arizona paved the way for victory by scoring on its first three possessions.

Kurt Warner passed for two touchdowns and Tim Hightower ran for two more as the Cardinals won for the third time in five games.

Warner connected with Larry Fitzgerald on a two-yard scoring play in the third quarter to start the run of 17 successive points by the Cardinals.
