BEAT L.A.

- - - - - The Cardinals brought it early and often in a dominant performance against Los Angeles, beating the Rams in our house for the first time since 2014, and for the first time since they returned to California, 41-10. Much like the opener in Buffalo, Arizona was able to put points on the board seemingly at will throughout the first half, though this time only slowed down due to the game being out of reach.
- - - - - Harrison reeled in the first two touchdowns of his career, on his first two touches of the contest. Murray added to his perfect passer rating with a scintillating throw to Higgins after a mad scramble to show everyone that he still has it. Every bounce went the Cardinals' way, including a fumble recovery in the endzone by McBride.
- - - - - Defensively, the Cardinals managed enough pressure to hold the Rams to only ten points. Gardeck led the way with three sacks with Baker providing support on the back end. An ill-advised desperation decision by Los Angeles at the end of the first half severely handicapped any comeback effort they hoped to mount.

NEXT WEEK, DETROIT LIONS: The Cardinals now have an opportunity to make a statement against one of the league's pre-season darlings. The Lions have more to prove and carry more of the pressure after two lackluster performances. Speaking of pressure, the Cardinals must find a way to keep Murray clean with it looking like RT Beachum will miss this contest. My prediction, Cards win, 31-27.

"The Cardinals Are Charging" was written for both the St. Louis Baseball and Football Cardinals on June 29, 1960. Although the baseball team stopped using the march several years later, the fight song can still be heard at all home football games for the now Arizona Cardinals. The music and words were composed by songwriters Irving Bibo (1889-1962) and Larry Kent. Originally, the lyrics had "all St. Louis" in place of "Arizona" (Line 7), and "St. Louis" instead of "Arizona" (Line 8). Download from the following versions: Real Audio, and MIDI.
