After bird watching a high-flying first drive, the Los Angeles Rams defense put down the binoculars and clipped the wings of the Arizona Cardinals 37-14 in Sunday’s NFC West matchup. It was the Rams second consecutive win and helped up their record up to 5-6.
The Cards gained 75 yards on that first drive and went ahead 8-7 after a two-point conversion. After that, the Rams defense allowed only 55 total yards over 32 plays until they cleared the bench in the middle of the fourth quarter. The dominance included five three and out’s, four quarterback sacks, and seven straight drives that ended in failure for the Cardinals.
