Arizona answered with a long TD drive of its own, with Conner running it in from two yards out to finally get the Cards on the board late in the third quarter, but it was simply too little too late.
Murray was considered a top MVP candidate earlier this season, but he looked far from that in his playoff debut. By the midpoint of the third quarter, Beckham Jr. had more passing yards than Murray thanks to the wideout’sThe third-year QB eventually passed Beckham Jr. in passing yards, finishing 19 of 37 for 137 yards, two picks and no touchdowns. He rushed just two times for six yards as Arizona posted a measly 183 yards of total offense and went a combined 1-for-11 on third and fourth down.
A blowout defeat in the postseason is disappointing on its own, but it's even more disappointing for the Cardinals considering how they started the season and where they were just over a month ago. Arizona won its first seven games and was 10-2 through Week 13. But Kliff Kingsbury’s team dropped three of its final five games, including losses to the Detroit Lions and Seattle Seahawks, and had to settle for a wild card spot.
The Rams, who beat out Arizona for the NFC West crown, will now travel to Tampa to face the defending championin the divisional round. Los Angeles beat Tampa Bay 34-24 at SoFi Stadium back in Week 3. Stafford threw for 343 yards and four touchdowns in the regular-season win over Tampa Bay. If the Rams can beat the Bucs again, they'll be just one win away from playing in Super Bowl 56 at their home stadium.
