A pair of NFC West division rivals will face each other in week 12 of the NFL season when the Los Angeles Rams travel to Glendale, Arizona to face the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium with kick-off scheduled for 4:05 PM ET and the game will air on Fox on Sunday afternoon.

Los Angeles enters this game in 3^rd place in the NFC West with a record of 4-6, however, they ended their three-game losing streak with a 17-16 win at home against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday making three of their four wins this season coming against division opponents. The Rams are averaging the 11^th fewest points per game this season with an average of 19.5 points per game, however, they have had one of the better passing offenses in the NFL as they are averaging 226.4 passing yards per game which ranks 15^th in the league. Despite having an above-average passing offense, Matthew Stafford has struggled this season as he has only thrown nine touchdowns while throwing eight interceptions and has a quarterback rating of 80.8 which ranks 5^th in the NFL. The Rams will look to build momentum following the win on Sunday when they travel to face the Arizona Cardinals.

The Arizona Cardinals have been one of the worst teams in the NFC this season as they enter this game with a record of 2-9 and are coming off a 16-21 loss on the road against the Houston Texans on Sunday.
