There weren’t many positive takeaways for fans of the Los Angeles Rams from Sunday’s cross-Mojave tilt with the Las Vegas Raiders, except for the 20-15 win. In a battle of inept offenses, L.A. was able to turn three turnovers into touchdowns and defend their home turf.
Offensively, it was back to the compressed horizontal passing game, predictable run game, Stafford was inaccurate, and the crowded box created problems for the offensive line. Could a few rollouts or some hard play action loosened things up? We’ll never know.
It was another small step forward for the defense.
