Rams Winners & Losers: Run defense struggles mightily against Chargers

The first preseason game of the 2023 season is in the books for the Los Angeles Rams—they fall to the Los Angeles Chargers 34-17 after multiple long touchdowns across offense and special teams.

With that said, there was good and bad in the defeat. LA’s offense showed poise against a deep Chargers defense, though the defense sprung leaks in the run game time after time.

How much stock can you put into a preseason game full of primarily reserve players? It’s a fair question for DC Raheem Morris’ group after a concerning opener.
