Cardinals Power Past Saints, 35-22
New Orleans -- The St. Louis Cardinals rolled-up 376 total yards of
offense and scored 21 second-half points to power past the New Orleans
Saints, 35-22. It looked like the Cardinals might run away with it
early. Saints' quarterback Bill Kilmer tossed two first quarter
interceptions. The Cardinals capitalized on the second as Jim Hart
connected with John Gilliam on an 18-yard TD pass to take a 7-0 lead.
Then, on their next possession, St. Louis drove 62 yards in five plays
and scored on Hart's second TD pass of the period, a 22-yarder to tight
end Jackie Smith, and led 14-0 as the first quarter ended.
The Saints got back into the game in the second period. After a holding
call put the Cardinals back at their own 10, Jim Hart was sacked by Mike
Tilleman at the three. On the next play, Hart dropped back to pass
again and was tackled in the endzone by Richard Neal. On the first play
following the free kick, Kilmer threw a 52-yard TD strike to Dave
Parks, making it 14-9 at the half.
The Saints took a 16-14 lead in the third period when Kilmer struck
again, this time on a 34-yard pass to Dan Abramowicz. St. Louis
responded with a 10-play, 79 yard drive and retook the lead, 21-16, on a
two-yard run by MacArthur Lane. Lane would score again on a four-yard
run and Johnny Roland would score on a six-yard run to make it 35-16
before Kilmer tossed his third TD pass of the game with 2:12 left to
play. Despite Kilmer's three TD passes, he also tossed four
interceptions. The Cardinals' ball carriers gained 173 yards on the
ground. Lane led the way with 23 carries for 91 yards.
Jackie Smith led the Cardinals with five receptions for 113 yards, while
Parks led the Saints, gaining 120 yards on his six catches. The win
keeps the Cardinals atop the NFC West at 2-0, while the Saints remain
winless.
