Rams Win Thriller Over Cardinals, 17-13Myles Simmons
GLENDALE, Ariz. — For the second year in a row, the Rams won a thrilling game in the desert, beating the Cardinals 17-13.
The Rams got on the board first in the game’s opening period with wide receiver Brian Quick’s second touchdown reception in two weeks. On 3rd-and-7 from the Los Angeles 35-yard line, quarterback Case Keenum had good time and fired a ball to Quick toward the right sideline. Quick snagged the ball in the air just out of the reach of Arizona cornerback Marcus Cooper, then made safety Tony Jefferson miss. From there, Quick had nothing but green grass in front of him as he raced down the sideline for a 65-yard touchdown.
For Quick, it’s the longest touchdown reception of his career. He recorded a 44-yard touchdown last week against the Buccaneers for his first TD of the year.
Following an Arizona field goal, the Rams extended their lead, moving down the field with a pair of explosive plays. L.A. got the drive started with a 23-yard pass from Keenum to Kendricks. Then on 3rd-and-7 from the visitors’ 46, wide receiver Kenny Britt slipped between two defenders and caught a 34-yard pass on the right side. Greg Zuerlein hit a 29-yard field goal to put the Rams ahead, 10-3.
