Cardinals crush Rams 34-13


The Cardinals got a rare road win on Sunday, defeating the Rams in St. Louis. It was a great win for the Cards, who scored 24 points in the second quarter and basically stepped on the Rams' throats in the final few minutes of the half.

It was an important win for Arizona, but I couldn't help but think how many un-Cardinals-like plays that happened throughout the game. Normally they are the ones with all calls going against them and all the karma being on the other team's sideline. Some of the aforementioned plays were:

1. Jerheme "I spell my name with an H for no reason" Urban's 56 yard touchdown pass that should have been an interception (normally that would be picked off and taken to the house by the other team)
2. Tim Hightower's 100 yard game (when is the last time THAT happened?)
3. Antrel Rolle's (pictured above) interception for a touchdown (normally its our QB who throws a duck to the other team)
4. The fact that the referees called two plays wrong, both in the Cardinals favor (although both were challenged and overturned. It's still a minor win.)

Next up is San Francisco on Monday freakin' night. The Cards lucked out getting a game in the national spotlight, let's hope they don't let the Niners off the hook, like they did the last time they played someone on a Monday.
