Cardinals 3, Rams 17

So much for the Cardinals 16-0 season.  They fall to the Rams 17-3 tonight in St. Louis.  This loss drops them to 4-1 on the season.  They really put on a pathetic display of offense tonight.  Their offensive line is a mess, they gave up 9 sacks tonight, that's now 16 sacks in the last 2 weeks.  They cannot go on like this, they need to try something different (maybe try Daryn Colledge at LT?).  Unfortunately, without Beanie Wells they haven't been able to run the ball either.  QB play wasn't too impressive either, Kolb was very erratic on many of his throws.  I have a problem blaming Kolb too much though as he was getting absolutely abused out there.  They really do need to straighten out their offense if they want to make anything of this season. 

Observations:

• Thank God for Darryl Washington. Team MVP to this point.
• Wasn't Russ Grimm suppose to be some sort of OL savant?  
• Now we know why Peyton Manning didn't sign with the Cardinals. 
• I wonder if the Cards wish they had gone with Riley Reiff over Michael Floyd in the draft? 
• The defense had another strong game, they need the offense to help them out though. 
• Rams rookie kicker Greg Zuerlein is quite the weapon. 
• It's time for Ryan Williams to step up his game.  If he can stay healthy that is. 
• It was good to see Darnell Dockett out there.  
• No Beanie Wells or Todd Heap, that didn't help the Cardinals struggling offense.  
• Up next?  The Buffalo Bills @ home on October 14.
