Week 1
Rams 49 vs Cardinals 35

Victory! The first game of the year for the Rams was a sloppy mess that would see them come out on top. This game will be remembered by monster kickoff returns by both teams. Tavon Austin had an amazing total of 313 all purpose kick return yards with two touchdowns. On the flip side of the ball Janoris Jenkins came through big when it was needed to get a pick six and a interception near the goalline to preserve a lead.

If you look at the stat line Sam Bradford had a rough day throwing 2 picks, 1 of which was a underthrown deep ball and another that was a mental error. On defense the Rams struggled to stop Arizona's passing attack giving up nearly 500 yards on the day. Alot of those yards could be from Arizona simply having the ball alot more due to the Rams amazing special teams play. Coach Philip Herass was pleased to get a close game in the Rams favor as they will need all the help they can get this year in the toughest division in the league.
