The Arizona Cardinals beat the St. Louis Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals went into the house of their NFC West rivals and basically dominated the Rams. The Cardinals did what they wanted and ran up the score, entering the fourth quarter with a 24-3 lead.
The Cardinals defense held the Rams in check, in particular Todd Gurley with the exception of one big run. Nick Foles was below pedestrian in the game and threw an interception.
