Still Fans in Redondo Beach? Rams Suffer Through Monday Night NFL Loss

The LA Rams season started with a whimper, a 28-0 loss to the 49ers. Now, with No. 1 draft pick Jared Goff benched, who will lead?

LOS ANGELES, CA — The Los Angeles Rams are off to a 0-1 start to the NFL regular season. On Tuesday morning, we look back to the Rams' resounding 28-0 Monday Night loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

The Rams only tallied only 56 rushing yards and 77 passing yards for the game, while they incurred 102 penalty yards and 431 yards punting. With their No. 1 draft pick, quarterback Jared Goff, listed as inactive, according to NFL.com, perhaps personnel management will be even more important to the team.

The question remains whether Rams coach Jeff Fisher will remain with Case Keenum, or will he give Goff another go?
