Approaching the season's midway point, Kurt Warner leads the NFL in completion percentage (70.2) and ranks second in completions (184) and passing yards (2,089). Warner was 35-for-49 for 381 yards, two touchdowns and one interception last Sunday as the Cards lost  27-23 to Carolina. The Cardinals QB has won both of his return trips to St. Louis, completing 41 of 67 passes for 475 yards, four touchdowns and one interception.

Since the 3-point underdog Rams made a coaching change they have responded with back-to-back victories over NFC East contenders Washington and Dallas, before a 23-16 loss at New England last Sunday.

The Cardinals swept their two games against the Rams last season, covering once.
