Follow Us
The Los Angeles Rams delivered a receiver special Wild Card game on Monday during their dominating 34-11 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Rams’ star receiving prospects like Odell Beckham Jr. and Cooper Kupp made it look easy for the team. As much as a celebrated game was for the hosts, equally embarrassing was it for the guests.
The Cardinals, at one point of the game, were trailing the Rams by 28-0. And being a playoff game, the stakes couldn’t be any higher. For any team, beating their divisional rivals is always considered special. And the Rams did to the Cardinals just what the Bills did to the Patriots.

Los Angeles Rams the complete team
However, it was a team effort since the whole Rams squad played like one unit. Yet it seemed to be more of a receiver’s night as the OBJ and Cooper Kupp duo ravaged the Cardinals throughout the game. Surprisingly Beckham also threw for a 40 yard gain to Cam Akers in the first down during the third quarter of the game.
