From watching the Rams this season, you probably learned just how boring football can be if played a certain way.

Whether it was being too careless or too reckless, the Rams never seemed to really know how to play out an exciting game.

Not yet, at least.

For the Chargers, doing that would be the easiest part of a relocation. The offensive weapons that they have would surely keeps Los Angeles sports fans on their toes.

Even when you look at the running game, the Chargers have more explosiveness and excitement.

Second year Rams running back Todd Gurley was supposed to have a breakout season. Instead, he’s been rather quiet, running for just five touchdowns and under 800 yards.

To the contrary, Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has scored 10 times and is one or two carries away from breaking the 1,000 yard mark.

The only team the Rams have really had any legitimate success with when looking at their division is the Seattle Seahawks.

And that only comes every now and then.

The Chargers have shown they can give all three strong division foes a run for their money.

So don’t you think they’ll become the popular choice to watch?
