    Greg Zuerlein kicked a 48-yard field goal with 40 seconds left, his fourth of the day, and the St. Louis Rams completed a fourth-quarter comeback with a 27-24 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

    Larry Fitzgerald caught two touchdown passes from new quarterback Carson Palmer and the Arizona defense scored one touchdown.

    The Cardinals, under new coach Bruce Arians, had an 11-point lead after Fitzgerald's 24-yarder late in the third quarter.

    Jared Cook had two touchdown catches in his Rams debut. The tight end fumbled a potential third TD, a 55-yarder that would have opened the scoring, when rookie Tyrann Mathieu punched the ball free at the 8 and the play resulted in a touchback.

    LT Levi Brown has got to be benched or cut. The entire O-Line was less than stellar. That Palmer had 327 yds passing is a miracle. Then again, giving up 14 points in the 4th will usually result in a loss.
