St. Louis, MO – Steven Jackson rushed for 159 yards and two 21 shocker over Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.
Indeed, it's been a good week for sports in St. Louis.
Several Cardinals players showed up to the game with the World Series trophy in tow, holding it up for the fans to see, and the Rams (1-6) did their best not to kill the mood.
They blocked a punt and intercepted Brees to score two touchdowns in the last 70 seconds of the first half, taking a 17-0 lead into the locker room that was rarely in jeopardy the rest of the way.
Brees threw an eight-yard touchdown pass to Lance Moore with six seconds left, extending his streak to 35 consecutive games with a TD pass.
But the Saints quarterback was mostly out of sorts one week after throwing more touchdown passes (5) than incompletions (4) in a 62-7 rout of the Colts that set a franchise record for points.
Brees was 30-for-44 passing and threw two interceptions for New Orleans (5-3), including one in the fourth quarter that was returned 27 yards for a touchdown by Darian Stewart.
