Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams fell short in week two in an attempt to defeat his former team, the Washington Redskins.

In week three the Los Angeles Rams will look to rebound by earning their first division win of the season on Thursday Night Football.

Flashback to their season opener against the same team in 2016 in which they were shut out by the San Francisco 49ers. Now, this season they have a new head coach with his coaching staff.

Also, there are similar faces as well as new faces. The defense has only improved and Jared Goff now has weapons surrounding him.

LA struggled on Sunday in the first half of the game against Washington. They were down at halftime, then they came back and tied the game up. The defense did all they could but Washington scored on what became the game-winning drive.

LA got the ball back with enough time to tie the game. Unfortunately, Jared Goff threw an interception sealing the fate of a loss for the LA Rams.

Goff showed glimpses of improvement by throwing for 219 yards, 40 yards more than Cousins. However, the interception is what completed the loss for LA.

Jared Goff and the Los Angeles Rams look to bounce back from their loss on a short week on Thursday night football against division rivals. In order for Goff and the Rams to earn their first division victory, they will have to play nearly flawless.

It is too early to determine the level of where every team is, yet the Rams are close to the middle of the pack. They can only move up.

Therefore you ask how can the Los Angeles Rams earn this victory? First, they will have to stop Carlos Hyde and the running game. They shall be fine stopping the aerial attack with the secondary they have.

Also, LA will have to run the ball themselves to open up their explosive aerial attack. Los Angeles will need to come out of the gates firing on all cylinders if they expect to win this game.

Todd Gurley is going to need to be a workhorse for the offense while Goff continues to complete check down throws. As the momentum builds, the Los Angeles Rams should be able to expose the 49ers deep and coast to a 2-1 record.
