The Arizona Cardinals were 0-for-6 in the red zone when it came to scoring touchdowns on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.
Thanks to Chad Ryland's right foot, it didn't matter.
Ryland kicked his sixth field goal of the game -- a 43-yarder -- to give Mike LaFleur and the Cardinals an 18-16 victory over the Rams.

Arizona is now 2-4 and its two wins have come at SoFi Stadium. The Cardinals defeated the Chargers to open the season.
The winning kick was set up by a controversial personal foul called on the Rams after Jalen Brooks caught a pass over the middle. Brooks too a glancing hit off his helmet as he went to the ground and the officials ruled it enough to be a 15-yard penalty.
This was a game-deciding
personal foul call against the #Rams. This is absolutely bananas. Grazing a defenseless receiver. This is atrocious. pic.twitter.com/KYN8cjiQz0

Ryland's heroics spoiled those of Rams punter Ethan Evans.
He kicked a successful PAT after the Rams scored to tie the game with 47 seconds left on a Matthew Stafford pass to Coldby Parkinson.
Evans was subbing for new Rams kicker Blake Grupe, who was injured early in the game while making a tackle on a kickoff.
