Cardinals vs. Rams, Week 1: St. Louis outlasts Arizona on late field goal

Here is the complete list of inactive players:

RB Ryan Williams, TE Rob Housler, CB Jamell Fleming, LB Alex Okafor, NT Alameda Ta’amu, OT Bobby Massie, OG Earl Watford.

Of the two teams, it’s likely Arizona that has the most to prove. St. Louis won four of its last six games in 2012, and as one of the league’s youngest teams, there are plenty of reasons to believe the team is building toward something big. For their part, the Cardinals opened 2012 4-0, but lost 11 of the next 12 games, leading to new head coach Bruce Arians, new general manager Steve Keim and the installation of Palmer under center.
