Jay Feely kicked a 22-yard field-goal to lift the Arizona Cardinals to a 20-17 overtime win over the visiting Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

The Cardinals (7-7) extended their winning streak to four and kept their slim playoff hopes alive as they remained two games behind Atlanta and Detroit for the final NFC wild card slot.

John Skelton connected with Larry Fitzgerald on a 32-yard bomb to the 4-yard line to set up Feely’s game-winning field goal.

Skelton was 28 of 46 for 313 yards and one TD and one interception.

Arizona finally got its offense untracked in the fourth quarter when Beanie Wells punched in a 2-yard run to cap off an 11-play, 87-yard drive.

Skelton had completions of 23 yards to Fitzgerald, 21 yards to Andre Roberts and 20 to Early Doucette on the scoring drive.

The Cardinals got the ball back when O’Brien Schofield forced Browns quarterback Seneca Wallace to fumble inside the five. But Arizona was forced to settle for Feely’s 33-yard field goal to tie the game at 17-17 with just over 5 ½ minutes to play.

Wallace, starting for the injured Colt McCoy, hit Greg Little down the sideline for a 76-yard TD reception with 3:21 left in the third quarter. It was the second third-down conversion on the six-play, 88-yard drive and gave Cleveland a 17-7 lead.

Peyton Hillis punched in a 1-yard TD to cap off a 76-yard opening drive and Phil Dawson kicked a 44-yard field goal to put the Browns up 10-0.

But with 90 seconds left in the first half, Skelton led a nine-play, 65-yard drive resulting in a 9-yard TD reception to Roberts to make it 10-7.
