It looked like the Rams were going to blow it but the defense came through in the clutch to take down the Cardinals

Omar Speights is really coming into his own as a starting linebacker next to Christian Rozeboom. He was outstanding against the run and while he still needs to improve in coverage, he’s playing at a high level. Speights was the Rams’ highest-graded defender in the game, according to PFF.

Rams defensive backs Ahkello Witherspoon and Kamren Kinchens came through again, this time with late interceptions to preserve a victory over the Cardinals.
