Outside of a playoff game in the Coliseum, this was one of the most nerve wracking games I have ever attended. The game was a slugfest. The final score of 35-23 was not indicative of how closely the Los Angeles Rams almost lost this one.
For every score the Rams put up, it was just enough to stay ahead. Then, the Spanos’ Chargers would get the ball and QB Philip Rivers would pass his team down the field, putting the Chargers right back in it.
This put the pressure on the Rams’ offense to match the Chargers, but QB Jared Goff had a career day as the Rams’ offense came through, The Rams punted only once the entire game in the fourth quarter.
