The Los Angeles Rams are looking to advance to the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs as they host their division rivals, the Arizona Cardinals.
Two former LSU Tigers are on the Rams teams as they took an early lead for the home team. Andrew Whitworth went down on the first play of the game after a defender fell on the back of his leg. He would return to the game, which is a sigh of relief for the Rams offense.
It was the other former Tiger that put his stamp on the game in the first quarter. After a punt on the first drive, quarterback Matthew Stafford found Odell Beckham Jr on multiple plays to get them on the board. As the Rams and Cardinals prepare to enter the second quarter, LA leads 7-0.

Beckham has caught both passes throw his way for 21 yards and the touchdown. Much like his quarterback, Beckham is looking for his first playoff win of his NFL career.
