It wasn’t a pretty sight. Not everything was perfect in Los Angeles, but Arizona made too many mistakes to hope for the better.

Arizona Cardinals (1-2) – Los Angeles Rams (2-1): 12-20
One wonders if Cardinals fans should arrive at the stadium before the start of the second half of their team’s games. Also this season, Arizona and Kyler Murray (37/58, 314 yards) missed their first bout on both sides of the pitch and proved to be a reaction team. If there was a miracle in Las Vegas, this time there was none against Los Angeles in this disappointing division duel in terms of attacks.
A moment that illustrates the difficulties of the Cardinals: an offensive series of 16 games that monopolized the entire 2nd quarter to end with a drop from James Conner and only 3 more points on the scoreboard.
Kliff Kingsbury and his attack still do not convince and we feel that DeAndre Hopkins is missing Kyler Murray who despite everything could count on Marquise Brown (14 REC, 140 yards).
And 100 for Aaron Donald
It is therefore Los Angeles that starts very strong with a field goal then a touchdown jet sweep by Cooper Kupp (4 REC, 44 yards – 1 run, 20 yards, 1 TD). Then nothing except Aaron Donald’s 100th career dismissal and an unusual drop by Cooper Kupp on a pass by Matthew Stafford (18/25, 249 yards) at the end of the first period.
Career bag n. 100 for Aaron Donald! 👏

How many approximations in Arizona
Kyler Murray is not helped by his line, nor by his receivers in the second period. 6 receivers have lost at least one of his passes. Opposite, second running back Cam Akers (12 carries, 61 yards, 1 TD, 1 FUM) scored his first touchdown of the season on a 14-yard run, but then fumbled 2 yards from the end zone. it almost changed the path of the game.
This will have no consequence as Los Angeles will only suffer a field goal and cover the onside shot attempted by Arizona.
Cam Akers makes it a two-estate game. 📈 @ thereal_cam3
