Breaking down the remaining games on the Cardinals’ schedule

The Cardinals play five games in December. What does each opponent look like right now?

The Arizona Cardinals have finished their bye week and have five games remaining on their schedule. They play their next three games at home and then are on the road in Seattle and Los Angeles for the final two games of the season.

They play the L.A. Rams next and then again last.

Let’s look at their opponents coming up.

Week 13, Week 17: Los Angeles Rams

Matt Kartozian-USA TODAY Sports

Record: 6-4 (entering Week 12)

The Rams are a balanced 3-2 at home and 3-2 on the road. They are 3-2 in their last five games. However, they are 0-2 in the division.

They are 13th in the league in total offense and 10th in the league in scoring, averaging 24.3 points per game.

They are seventh in passing offense and 21st in rushing.

Defensively, they are 11th in yards and 11th in points allowed, giving up 19.8 points per game. They are 16th in passing defense and fourth in rush defense.

Leading passer: Jared Goff — 2,783 yards, 11 TDs, 10 INTs

Leading rusher: Todd Gurley — 525 yards, 4.1 YPC, seven touchdowns

Leading receiver: Cooper Kupp — 61 catches for 845 yards, five touchdowns

Sack leaders: Aaron Donald (8), Clay Matthews (7)

Both games are winnable. A split is a reasonable expectation. Especially coming off the bye, they hopefully win the game at home.
