Cards Rams Round 1

In the first divisional game for the Cardinals it started out as a slugfest before the Arizona defense was able to impose their will in the 2nd half. The Rams jumped out to an early lead and were able to hold the Cardinals to a Fg early. The 1st quarter ended in a 14-14 tie, a defensive struggle in the 2nd quarter saw the Cards muster just 2 field goals to take a 6pt lead into the break. A mismanagement of the clock left points on the field since the Cardinals had no timeouts left to be able to attempt a FG. Rams got a quick 3 and out at the half and took the lead on their 1st possession of the half. They would add a FG a short time later which would conclude their scoring for the day. Arizona managed sound drives after forcing several turnovers to stop deep drives into Cardinal territory. Arizona forces 8 turnovers for the 2nd game in a row. While the offense isn't flashy in the least they get the job done and don't put the defense in to many bad spots once they get the ball back. Really good game by both sides of the ball. Great offense game by the Rams though, not looking forward to the next meeting.
