Welp, the Arizona Cardinals’ season is over.

Quarterback Carson Palmer suffered a broken left arm during his team’s 33-0 shutout loss at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams over across the pond, all but ensuring Arizona’s 2017 prospects come to an end:

Carson Palmer will have surgery on his broken left arm and miss eight weeks.

Hey! Drew Stanton, right?

All one has to do is flash back to the Cardinals’ 2014 season, when Palmer was lost to another injury, to see how Arizona’s chances are now.

If you thought the Cardinals defense might be good enough to toe the line, well, those 33 points and 425 yards allowed tells you about all you need to know.

Hence the reason for Arizona’s massive drop in NFL power rankings this week.
