Rams get back in the win column with 35-21 victory over Raiders

After a particularly disappointing loss last week and a wave of injuries, the Rams got their groove back against the Raiders on Sunday.

Los Angeles defeated Las Vegas 35-21 with a strong overall performance in the desert.

The Rams were particularly effective on the ground, and the club would have rushed for over 200 yards if not for kneel-downs at the end of the game. Kyren Williams led the way with 99 yards on 16 carries with a touchdown, while Blake Corum had 93 yards on 17 carries with a TD.

Matthew Stafford became the Rams’ all-time leader in touchdown passes with his three first-half scoring strikes on Sunday, surpassing Roman Gabriel. He finished the contest 23-of-29 passing for 195 yards with the three scores and an interception — a pass that went right off of Colby Parkinson’s hands and into the waiting arms of Nakobe Dean.

Despite dealing with a calf injury, Puka Nacua caught eight passes for 68 yards with a touchdown while also rushing for 10 yards on two carries. Tight end Davis Allen caught Stanford’s other two touchdowns in the first half.

L.A. punted on its first possession, but after that scored four straight touchdowns to take a 28-6 lead into halftime.

Things got a little hairy for the Rams in the second half, with a Kyren Williams fumble and the interception preventing the team from scoring more. But after Kirk Cousins’ 15-yard touchdown pass to Ashton Jeanty narrowed the Rams’ lead to 28-18, L.A. put the game away with a 12-play, 70-yard drive that ended on Corum’s 4-yard touchdown run.

Cousins finished the game 26-of-44 for 295 yards with two touchdowns. Tre Tucker caught five passes for 103 yards with a TD. Jeanty had just 15 yards rushing on eight carries, though he also had 61 yards receiving on eight catches. Brock Bowers finished with 73 yards on six catches.

Now at 3-4, the Rams will be back at SoFi Stadium for a matchup against the cross-town Chargers in Week 8.

After starting 3-0, the Raiders have now fallen to 3-4. They will be on the road to face the Jets next Sunday.
