Coming off what should be a challenging game against the Seahawks, the Cardinals week three game against the Rams should be a test of their team's consistency as they try to grow into their role as a sleeper sensation.Although the Cardinals have been the laughing stock of the NFL over the past few years, they're looking to leave that role solely to the 49ers as the Cardinals finally get a push in the right direction. With recent additions of running back Edgerin James and college stand-out quarterback Matt Leinart, the Cardinals now have the offensive pieces in place to make something happen.
Of course, the Rams have had such a system in place for years now, and will be sure to make life hard on the young Cardinals. Adding La'Roi Glover should help boost the defense a bit. And although they've lost their running back Marhsall Faulk, the addition of running back Steven Jackson put a positive spin on the entire situation. Although it's too early to call, this has the shapings to be a real battle in the brand new Cardinals Stadium.
