Bradford's two TDs lead Rams past Chiefs

Aug 27, 2011 - 3:47 AM Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Second-year quarterback Sam Bradford completed 9-of-16 passes for 95 yards, two touchdowns and one interception to lead the St. Louis Rams to a 14-10 win over the intrastate rival Kansas City Chiefs in the third game of the preseason for both teams.

Steven Jackson rushed 15 times for 72 yards and a long run of 25 yards, while former Buccaneer Cadillac Williams ran 12 times for 53 yards.

Donnie Avery caught two passes for 26 yards for St.Louis, while Mardy Gilyard grabbed three balls for 18 yards. Mike Sims-Walker and Lance Kendricks both caught touchdown passes from Bradford.

Former Iowa Hawkeye star Ricky Stanzi led the Chiefs air attack with 121 yards and one touchdown on 8-of-14 passing, while starter Matt Cassel completed 6- of-13 passes for 59 yards.

Jackie Battle rushed 13 times for 43 yards, while tight end Cody Slate had two catches for 50 yards and one touchdown in the loss.

Bradford led the first-team offense down the field for two first-quarter scores and that proved to be all the offense the Rams needed.

Bradford connected with Sims-Walker on a six-yard touchdown pass to cap a 12- play, 73-yard drive, and then connected with Kendricks on an 11-yard score.

Kicker Ryan Succop got the Chiefs on the board with a 26-yard field goal before the end of the first half, and Slate caught a touchdown pass from Stanzi in the third quarter to make it 14-10.
