NFL: NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS BEAT ARIZONA CARDINALS WITH JIMMY GAROPPOLO HAVING IMPROVED STATS

Two top most seeded teams clashed in a tight match whereby New England Patriots were with out the best 3 players...It was the 1st Sunday of the NFL season and Tom Brady was out along with Rob Gronkowski and a dominant defender Chandler Jones therefore someone had to step up his game and Jimmy Garoppolo was one of them...

With only 4 passes last season Garoppolo was on fire when he came up with 24 of 33 for 264 yards and 1 touchdown against the Cardinals...New England won the game 23-12.
