Who do you believe earned the game ball for Week 12 win over Cardinals?

There were many who were uncertain of how well the LA Rams would play in a Week 12 showdown against the Arizona Cardinals. The honest answer is that the LA Rams track record in the 2023 NFL season did nothing to instill the sort of confidence needed to expect the LA Rams to go on the road and beat an NFC West Division rival.

By every stretch of the imagination, the Arizona Cardinals had everything needed to win the game. The Arizona Cardinals were healthy. The Cardinals had plenty of incentive to take revenge on the LA Rams. The Cardinals were playing at home. And perhaps most of all, Arizona Cardinals starting quarterback Kyler Murray is playing for his job, and perhaps even his NFL career.

So it was not surprising in the least that Rams fans were not feeling confident in a victory. You only need to glance at the Rams' schedule over the 2023 NFL season to find no evidence of the Rams winning back-to-back games. And yet, that is exactly what the LA Rams did in Week 12.
