There were expected to be some growing pains and a steep learning curve for the Los Angeles Rams this summer because of how young the roster is. They looked like a young team on Saturday night against the Chargers, losing their preseason opener, 34-17.
The offense showed signs of consistency with Stetson Bennett under center, but the defense gave up way too many yards on the ground and the pass rush was almost non-existent in the first half. Even against the Chargers’ backups, the Rams struggled defensively despite some of the players they trotted out there projecting to be starters.
