Former Sooners and current Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray led his team to a relatively easy divisional 37-20win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

The Cardinals now improve their record to an undefeated 4-0 and own sole possession of first place in the NFC West. Arizona is also one of two remaining undefeated teams in the NFL—the other being the Las Vegas Raiders, who play Monday night.

Murray finished with 268 passing yards on 24-of-32 completions along with two passing touchdowns and a fantastic 120.3 passer rating. The former No. 1 overall draft pick also finished with 39 rushing yards on six carries.

The Cardinals opened their scoring at the 5:50 mark of the first quarter. Murray threw a 41-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver A.J. Green, giving Arizona a 7-3 lead.

In the early minutes of the second quarter, Murray threw his second touchdown pass to tight end Maxx Williams on a 14-yard pass, gaining the lead back from the Rams at 14-10.

The Cardinals outscored the Rams in the second half 13-7 with a pair of Matt Prater field goals and a rushing touchdown by running back James Conner.

Coming into Sunday’s game, Murray was third in the NFL in passing yards at 1,005, fifth in QBR at 70.1 and tied for the lead for rushing touchdowns at three. The Cardinals travel back home to host the San Francisco 49ers at 3:25 P.M. CT Sunday, Oct. 10 on Fox.
