ST. LOUIS - Kurt Warner produced three touchdowns, one in his typical relief role and two more after Matt Leinart was sidelined by a broken collarbone, as Arizona edged St. Louis 34-31 on Sunday.
Rod Hood returned an off-target pass by Gus Frerotte 68 yards for an easy go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter.
Warner and Edgerrin James scored TDs on short runs, helping the Cards (3-2) win for the third straight season in St. Louis.
Frerotte made his first start since the end of 2005 in place of Marc Bulger (broken ribs) and threw three TD passes for the winless Rams (0-5).
