Rams’ FG extends its lead to 13-9

Matthew Stafford looked just as hot as Kyler Murray early in the second half as the Rams QB led his team with a 13-play, 60-yard drive capped by Joshua Karty’s 25-yard field goal.

Stafford completed his first five passes of the drive, including two to Puka Nacua, who now has 10 receptions for 129 yards.

Score: Rams 13, Cardinals 9 (6:33 remaining in the fourth quarter)

The Cardinals score again, trailing by 1

Kyler Murray and the Cardinals offense looked like a completely different team against the Rams in the second half.

And it shows.

They have now scored for the second straight time, getting a 28-yard field goal from Chad Ryland after a touchdown pass from Kyler Murray to Trey McBride.

Murray has completed 14 passes for 135 yards so far in the second half, playing his best since Arizona’s bye week. He was exceptional on each of his last two possessions, with the latter covering 80 yards on 14 plays.

Murray said before the game that he wouldn’t let off the gas, even though the Cardinals are out of the playoffs and that’s how he plays.

Score: Rams 10, Cardinals 7 (14 minutes left in fourth quarter)

Trey McBride finally grabs a TD catch

Cardinals tight end Trey McBride is finally off the hook.

Kyler Murray threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to McBride and the Cardinals’ leading receiver this season finally has his first touchdown reception of the season.

The Cardinals completed a 13-play, 68-yard drive to open the second half at SoFi Stadium. McBride caught three passes for 23 yards during the possession and now has six passes for 68 yards on the night.

However, the Rams blocked Chad Ryland’s extra point attempt.

Score: Rams 10, Cardinals 6 (8:31 left in third quarter)

FG gives the Rams a 10-0 lead at halftime

Late in the first half, a somewhat controversial play went in the Rams’ favor, which ultimately helped Los Angeles score on its second consecutive possession.

The play in question included a completion from Matthew Stafford to wide receiver Puka Nacua for 10 yards and a first down, although replays showed his elbow appeared to be down before the first-down marker.

There was no replay in the video booth, Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon didn’t throw a challenge flag and the game remained in LA’s favor.

Stafford then completed consecutive passes to Nacua for 25 and seven yards, and after consecutive incompletions, the Rams scored on a 53-yard field goal from Joshua Karty to make it 10-0 with 27 seconds left in the second quarter.

Kyler Murray, meanwhile, was sacked for a 6-yard loss on Arizona’s ensuing possession, sending the game into halftime.

Despite the deficit, the Cardinals are ahead in total yards, 18:12 to 11:48, trailing 167 to 140.

Murray is 13 of 19 for 124 yards and Stafford is 8 of 20 for 123 yards. Nacua leads all receivers with six receptions for 88 yards and Arizona’s Trey McBride has four catches for 46 yards.

The Rams lead 7-0 on Kyren Williams’ TD

The Rams went 60 yards in nine plays and scored with a 1-yard touchdown, Kyren Williams’ second attempt.

Big plays included a 29-yard completion from Matthew Stafford to Cooper Kupp, a 15-yard catch-and-run from Puka Nacua and a 12-yard scramble from Stafford.

Earlier, the Cardinals had moved into Rams territory on their fourth possession of the game and looked like they were on their way to a score midway through the second quarter.

However, a 34-yard pass from Kyler Murray to tight end Trey McBride was negated due to an illegal man downfield penalty on Arizona rookie lineman Isaiah Adams. The flag moved the ball back well out of field goal range and the Cardinals were forced to punt.

Running back James Conner, active but playing with a sore knee, sat out during that series but has yet to be ruled out.

Score: Rams 7, Cardinals 0 (3:23 left in the second quarter)

We’re scoreless after the first quarter in LA

The first quarter between the Cardinals and Rams is over at Sofi Stadium and the game remains scoreless.

There were five punts, three by the Rams and two by the Cardinals, but Arizona is ahead.

Quarterback Kyler Murray completed seven of his first eight passes for 76 yards, including two to tight end Trey McBride for 41 yards.

The Cardinals lead 82-46 total yards

Score: Cardinals 0, Rams 0 (end of first quarter)
