How to Watch Cardinals vs. Rams Players To Watch Arizona has lost four straight since its only win, at the Chargers on Sept. 13, and Jacoby Brissett has been sacked 12 times in five games, a top-10 total in the NFL. He has 1,110 passing yards, nine touchdowns and five interceptions. Los Angeles has 8.0 sacks, among the bottom 10 in the NFL, and Brissett has still taken 12, so the sack problem has been largely Arizona’s own. A cleaner pocket is the first fix for a 1-4 team.

He has nine touchdowns and six interceptions, the third most in the league. Arizona allows 236.8 passing yards per game, among the bottom 10 in the NFL, and has intercepted three passes, which gives Stafford room to work.
