James Conner's Top Plays From Week 14 vs. Rams Watch all of the best plays from RB James Conner's 125-yard performance including a career-high 94 receiving yards
DECEMBER 14, 2021 • AZCARDINALS.COM
Adds to touchdown tally Conner rushed 13 times for 31 yards and two touchdowns, and caught all nine of his targets for 94 yards in Monday night's 30-23 loss to the Rams.
Impact Conner was largely bottled up in the running game, but he nonetheless turned in a fantastic performance, punishing defenders with his physicality, including on both of his touchdown runs, and making them miss on other occasions. Along with extending his touchdown streak to seven games, Conner also made an awesome, one-handed catch for the second straight outing, ultimately contributing toward career highs in receptions, targets and yards through the air. With 125 yards from scrimmage, he again capitalized on Chase Edmonds' (ankle) absence, and whether Edmonds is involved in Week 15 versus the Lions or not, Conner's matchup appears favorable.

Impact The Cards designated Edmonds for return from IR on Thursday, opening a 21-day window in which to get him back on the active roster. With Edmonds not yet recovered from the high-ankle sprain he sustained back in Week 9 at San Francisco, he'll miss a fourth consecutive contest. In the previous three outings as the unquestioned top RB for Arizona, Conner earned at least 81 percent of snaps en route to averaging 20.3 touches for 91.3 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown per game.

Cardinals' nose for takeaways big reason for 10-2 record
The Arizona Cardinals had a big defensive day in Sunday's 33-22 victory over the Chicago Bears by using four interceptions to win their 10th game of the seasonDECEMBER 6, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Strong performance as lead back Conner rushed 20 times for 75 yards and brought in both targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 33-22 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Impact Once again serving in an unquestioned lead-back role, Conner turned in a solid workmanlike performance and topped off his fantasy performance with a 23-yard touchdown reception in the latter portion of the second quarter. Conner has now handled a 20-carry workload in three of the last four games, a span during which he's also recorded multiple grabs and contributed a pair of receiving touchdowns. Conner should once again have a significant role through both the ground and air in a critical NFC West Monday night showdown against the Rams in Week 14.

Another workhorse showing Conner ran for 62 yards and one touchdown on 21 carries while catching five passes for 37 yards on six targets against Seattle on Sunday.
Impact Colt McCoy starting in place of Kyler Murray (ankle) allowed the Seahawks to allocate extra resources toward slowing Conner on the ground, but the touchdown and strong pass-catching usage made it yet another strong fantasy showing for Conner overall. The Cardinals have a bye in Week 12 and Chase Edmonds (ankle) might be back not long after that, but Conner should get another three-down start against Chicago in Week 13. Conner was valuable even before Edmonds' injury, so the former Steeler could stay high in the weekly rankings going forward.

Scores once again Conner rushed 10 times for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers. He also caught three of four targets for 25 yards.
Impact Conner didn't approach last week's monstrous output, but he still managed to find the end zone once again. With an 11-yard rush during the fourth quarter, Conner brought his season total to 12 touchdowns, including 11 on the ground. That score helped compensate for an otherwise modest performance in which Arizona's usual second and third-string quarterbacks led the offense. The team will hope star signal-caller Kyler Murray (ankle) can return versus the Seahawks next week, but with fellow tailback Chase Edmonds (ankle) recently placed on injured reserve, there's no doubt Conner will continue to lead the backfield charge no matter who is throwing the ball.
