St. Louis Rams vs. San Diego Chargers Preview

The St. Louis Rams will take on the San Diego Chargers tonight at the Edward Jones Dome. The Rams will be looking to bounce back from their horrible showing last week against the Tennessee Titans, and try to gain some confidence that they are sorely lacking heading into the 2008 season.

I know it is only preseason but you have to be worried about the Rams. The rams finished 31st in points allowed last season. Week 1 they allowed 34 points to the Titans, which means they are 32nd in the preseason in points allowed. They also allowed 340 yards on the ground which easily puts them last in rushing defense. We need to see improvement on both sides of the ball tonight, the start of the season is only 3 week away.

The San Diego Chargers beat the Dallas Cowboys last week 31-17 to open their preseason schedule. The Chargers are one of the favorites to reach the Superbowl this year, after finishing 11-5 and making it to the playoffs. Last year the Chargers were 5th in scoring, and 7th in rushing yards led by LT. On defense the Chargers are also strong were they finished 5th in points allowed and led the league in interceptions.
