The Arizona Cardinals’ two wins this season have both come in SoFi Stadium, and that alone would be a quirky enough note for Week 6. But the stat gets even stranger: the Cardinals now have more wins at SoFi Stadium than the Rams and Chargers have combined there this season.
Arizona is 2-4 after upsetting the Los Angeles Rams in Week 6, a result that pushed the Cardinals into third in the NFC West. The Rams dropped to last place, and Arizona holds the tiebreaker over them.
What makes the number stand out is how those two Cardinals victories came. Their only wins of the 2026 season have been against the Los Angeles teams - the Rams and the Chargers - and both happened in the same building.
Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team put the oddity in plain terms on Twitter/x: "This is wild: The Cardinals have more wins at SoFi Stadium (2) than the Rams and Chargers have combined (1) this season," Meirov shared.
That’s a jarring snapshot of a season that has already produced its share of strange numbers. Arizona entered 2026 with modest expectations, so a low win total was hardly shocking. Still, getting two wins through the first four weeks was a small surprise.
The bigger surprise is who those wins came against. The Rams were billed as a top Super Bowl contender, while the Chargers were seen as a team on the rise and ready to make a leap. Instead, the Cardinals walked into their shared home and beat both of them.
The Rams are 2-4 and have already lost at home to the New York Giants, the Buffalo Bills, and the Cardinals. The Chargers are 0-6 and have taken home losses to the Cardinals, the Las Vegas Raiders, and the Denver Broncos.
For now, the Cardinals’ SoFi Stadium tally is one of the oddest storylines of the early season. As the source put it, this is one of the more unexpected stats to surface around the NFL to begin 2026, and it gives Arizona a strange but very real bragging point.

Rams Just Wasted A Defensive Effort Fans Deserved Better Than This
The Rams had more than enough on defense to put themselves in position to win Sunday, but they could not get the offense to meet them halfway in an 18-16 loss to the Cardinals. Los Angeles never found the end zone, and Matthew Stafford did not get over 100 passing yards until the fourth quarter, a glaring sign of how long the offense spent searching for anything that resembled rhythm.
Meanwhile, the defense kept doing its part, coming up with an interception and tightening up inside the red zone to keep Arizona from pulling away. Even with that effort, the game still came down to the final kick, and the Cardinals walked it off as time expired, leaving the Rams with the kind of loss that feels especially frustrating because the work on one side of the ball deserved a better finish.

Colts Pressure On Shane Steichen Just Raised One Huge Question
The Colts rocky start has only added to the noise around Shane Steichens future, with Indianapolis sitting at 2-4 through Week 6 and the scrutiny around the head coach growing louder by the week. Co-owner and CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon has reportedly already put Steichen and general manager Chris Ballard on notice about the standard the franchise expects to meet in 2026, a clear sign that the organization is looking beyond just the current slide.
For a team trying to steady itself before the season drifts any further, the conversation is no longer just about fixing the offense or getting back on track. It is also about what happens if the results do not change, and the list of possible replacements is already part of the backdrop around Steichens tenure, which makes every week from here carry a little more weight.

Jalen Hurts Rams Aftermath Now Carries Much Bigger Questions
Jalen Hurts health situation has now shifted far beyond the usual late-season injury chatter, with the Eagles ruling him out for the rest of the year after diagnosing him with deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli. The team laid out a detailed timeline of how the blood clot issues were discovered, how he was treated and evaluated, and how travel factored into the process before medical experts were consulted and the decision was made to place him on injured reserve.
For the Rams, who have had plenty of recent history with Hurts on the other side of the field, the immediate football angle is only part of the story now. What matters most is that one of the leagues most prominent quarterbacks is dealing with a serious medical issue that leaves the Eagles without their starter and raises much bigger questions than anything tied to the standings.
