Connor Barwin

The former Philadelphia Eagle and Houston Texan, Barwin has moved west to Los Angeles. He is tied for the team lead in sacks with three.

The good news here is the Cardinals have had some success in the past containing Barwin. He has just 0.5 sacks against the Cardinals in four career games.

However this is his first effort against the Cardinals as a member of the Rams defense. It could be a completely different day than what he’s experienced against them previously.

The Cardinals have to pay attention to the entire pass rush but this veteran, in his 9th NFL season, can still bring it from the linebacker position. His is coming off his best effort of the season against the Jaguars, totaling seven tackles including one sack.
