You’re missing the point. This is more about how the Cardinals have performed on the road. Which is poorly. We lost to loud, boisterous crowds in Philadelphia & Detroit. Losing at home against Dallas was almost like playing a road game. The crowd in London is hardly boisterous. Btw, that Ram’s road record includes wins at Jacksonville, SF, and Oakland. Jacksonville & SF are quiet road venues & Oakland was missing their QB & have a hideous D.

My response was to the post that made it seem like the Cardinals were at an advantage since there would be more Cards fans and I pointed out that Rams are unbeaten on the road.

And the other road win for the Rams was at Dallas not Oakland.

Yeah, but this game is not on the road but over the ocean :)

This isn’t a road game, it’s a neutral sight. Road games are tough because the crowd works against you. With more name players on the Cardinals, I fully expect the crowd to be pro Arizona. This is a winnable game. I say we come out on top.

It's been explained elsewhere why there will be far more Rams fans at this game.

Neutral site. The crowd and/or noise should be a non-factor for both teams this week. Neither team travels well in THIS country (in terms of fans)and we're talking about London, Lol.

The Rams haven't been bothered with either travel or noise so far on the road this season. The Cards have been bothered by "something" when playing on the road. Granted, Philly is probably the best team in the NFC so no shame there...but even historically AZ is just a different team at home vs on the road. That's my perception from watching the games.

Bottom line though is that its a neutral site, Rams lose a true home game and none of this travel/crowd stuff will matter on game day.

Can the Cardinals stop Pharoh Cooper? We forget how awful Special Teams is at covering kick offs and punt returns.
