Studs and duds in Cardinals’ 31-24 loss to the Rams

Check out who impressed and who didn’t quite go as well as hoped.

Dud: Chandler Jones

Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

Let me make this clear. Jones was not a dud for playing poorly. He had a good game, making plays when he could. The Rams’ game plan was clearly to take him out of the game and he found ways to impact it. However, when there was talk of maybe getting the sack record or even to 20 sacks or even the sack title and he doesn’t get any of them, it is disappointing. We all wanted at least one sack. The Rams made sure that didn’t happen.

By the way, Jones has been shut out in three of the last four games against the Rams and had only half a sack in the other game.
