Last week, I was unable to present my preview of our Los Angeles Rams opening the preseason against the Oakland Raiders. I was too busy practicing my yellow handkerchief throwing. In fact, I practiced so hard, I injured my throwing arm making it virtually impossible to write anything.
Having waited six months for the NFC Champions to take the field, I was wrought with excitement an overwhelming need to see my Rams play football again. What I watched is evidence of the continued decline of the value of preseason games.
The Rams played few potential starters, a Sean McVay trait since he’s been head coach of the Rams.
