The Los Angeles Rams overcame a slow start and beat the winless Los Angeles Chargers 24-9 Sunday at SoFi Stadium.
Matthew Stafford completed enough throws to steady the Rams after an early interception, finishing with 157 passing yards and a touchdown. Puka Nacua caught 11 passes for 80 yards, including an 18-yard screen that he turned into a third-quarter score.
The Chargers took a 9-3 lead on three Cameron Dicker field goals. Los Angeles did not allow another point after that.
Kyren Williams scored on a 1-yard run with 19 seconds left in the first half, putting the Rams ahead 10-9. The play followed a 40-yard Stafford completion to Tutu Atwell.
Blake Corum carried the momentum into the second half. He ran five times for 55 yards on the opening drive and finished it with a 23-yard touchdown. Corum ended the game with 73 yards on 11 carries.
The Rams’ defense created two interceptions that produced 10 points. Quentin Lake’s 46-yard return set up an early field goal, and Trent McDuffie’s third-quarter interception led to Nacua’s touchdown.
The victory moved the Rams to 4-4 and gave them consecutive wins for the first time this season. The Chargers fell to 0-7.
