Los Angeles Rams Form
Los Angeles head to Arizona having won each of their previous three games to improve to 5-4.
The Rams entered the season as Super Bowl favourites, but failed to live up that tag early on as they lost two of their first three games, sandwiching a 28-6 win over the New York Giants with defeats to San Francisco, 27-7, and Denver, 30-6.
They got back to .500 with a 24-20 win in Philadelphia, only to then drop back-to-back games as they lost 37-34 to Buffalo and 18-16 to Arizona at home.
Los Angeles were able to avoid a third straight loss though, beating Las Vegas 35-21 on the road.
The Rams have since built on that victory, backing up a 24-9 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers with a 20-13 win in Washington.
Arizona Cardinals Form
Arizona come into this matchup on the back of a defeat in Seattle that dropped them to 3-6.
The Cardinals enjoyed a winning start to the season as they beat the Los Angeles Chargers on the road, 26-14.
However, their form quickly nose-dived as a 31-7 blowout loss at home to Seattle proved to be the start of a four-game losing that saw them fall 36-30 at San Francisco, 36-24 at the New York Giants, and 45-21 at home to Detroit.
Arizona stopped the rot with an 18-16 upset of the Los Angeles Rams on the road, but they were unable to back that up as they lost 30-16 to Denver.
The Cardinals then failed to follow up a 33-30 overtime upset of Dallas on the road, as they were beaten 17-3 in Seattle.
Verdict
Don’t look now, but Myles Garrett is back and the Los Angeles Rams are starting to pick up speed.
They are dealing with some injuries, but they can lean on the defense against a struggling Arizona offense that will be led by a rookie QB making his first start.
