ST. LOUIS — Kurt Warner threw for 203 yards and two touchdowns while building a 21-3 cushion, and the NFC West leaders hung on without him, remaining unbeaten on the road with a 21-13 victory over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday.

Warner left with an apparent head injury late in the first half.

Tim Hightower had 110 yards on 14 carries, the first 100-yard game of the season for a team ranked next to last in rushing, helping the Cardinals (7-3) win for the sixth time in seven games overall.

Steven Jackson became the first Rams player to post five consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, gaining 116 yards on 24 carries with a fourth quarter touchdown that cut the deficit to eight points. It's also the fourth straight 100-yard game for Jackson.
