The Arizona Cardinals have been a hot-streaking sensation lately, and that appears to be the case again on Sunday. Kyler Murray isn't wasting any time against the Los Angeles Rams and is making his presence known early.
The 23-year-old quarterback found tight end Dan Arnold for a 59-yard pass that led to a touchdown, giving the Cardinals a 7-0 lead in the first quarter.

Murray has been exceptional as the season enters its last leg. He's thrown for over 240 yards in four of his last five games, while completing over 65 percent of his passes in all five of his last contests.
The Cardinals themselves haven't had the best of luck in their last two outings despite Murray's success. They're currently riding a two-game losing streaking after dropping the ball against the New England Patriots in Week 12, a squad that shouldn't of posed as a threat given the season they've had so far.
Even so, their overall season has been a success. They hold a 6-5 record and are third in the NFC West. Arizona's next few games will come against some lowly opponents, which should bring about some additional dominating performances. They'll play the Rams once more on Jan. 3 as their final game of the regular season.
