The Arizona Cardinals put an end to nine consecutive losing seasons. The team would rather call it a beginning. Larry Fitzgerald caught 11 passes for 171 yards and two touchdowns, and Arizona beat the living crap out of the St. Louis Rams 48-19 on Sunday, the Cardinals' highest-scoring output in 30 years. The .500 record under first-year coach Ken Whisenhunt is Arizona's best since going 9-7 and making the playoffs in 1998. The Cardinals' only other non-losing season in 23 years was 8-8 in 1994, Buddy Ryan's first season as Arizona's coach.
"This is the building blocks for what we've got to do," Fitzgerald said. "I think this is great momentum."
Kurt Warner threw for 300 yards and three touchdowns but was intercepted twice. Oshiomogho Atogwe returned one of the picks 52 yards for a score that cut the Cardinals' lead to 31-19 with 1:48 left in the third quarter.
