The Chargers won their preseason opener 34-17 over the Rams thanks to a tremendous effort by a number of rookie Bolts that spanned all three phases of the game.
After losing to the Rams 29-22 in last year’s preseason matchup, this year’s game was much more invigorating to watch thanks in large part to new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore. Despite the entire game being played by backups and third-stringers on both sides, the game was filled with huge plays, plenty of points, and exciting moments that almost made you feel like we were in the midst of the regular season.
