The Rams have had substantial trouble stopping the run against Washington and are down 20-10 at halftime. Here are a few notes from the first two quarters.
TROUBLE STOPPING THE RUN
Los Angeles has had a tough time slowing down Washington’s run game in the first half. In the first quarter, Washington running back Rob Kelley had 63 yards on just nine carries.
Then the second quarter began with another run, with running back Chris Thompson taking a pitch to the left seven yards for a touchdown.
After the Rams had cut Washington’s lead to three points, Thompson blew through the defense again for a 61-yard touchdown on a draw play.
