Raiders vs Rams Preseason Preview
The Raiders beat the Seattle Seahawks, 20-7, in their first preseason game. Derek Carr sat, and quarterback Nathan Peterman took all of the snaps, going 29-39 for 246 yards and an interception. Backup Marcus Mariota didn’t play, but he could see limited action in this one. Las Vegas played dominant defense in the win, allowing 194 only total yards, 68 of which were on the ground.
Both teams had joint practices this week, and things got more than a tad chippy — so chippy, in fact, the second session was cut short after too many fights.
“I’m glad that nobody got injured,” Rams coach Sean McVay said after the practice scuffles. “It’s unfortunate we didn’t get to finish up.”
When asked what message he had for his team after the second practice was cut short, Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said this:
“There’s no message,” Gruden said. “They know. They know better. Everybody knows better. And again, it wasn’t everybody fighting — it will be on TV, you’ll see a bunch of guys screaming and yelling — but it was two guys in the special teams period. And then it was a lot of trash-talking that escalated. Just sickening, really, it’s just stupidity. I’m done with that. It’s just child’s play to me.”
The Rams lost their first preseason game to the Los Angeles Chargers, 13-6. Starting quarterback Matthew Stafford sat, while backups Duck Hodges and Bryce Perkins took all of the team’s snaps. Hodges completed 11 of 19 passes for 85 yards and an interception, while Perkins went 7-10 for 42 yards and a score.
Los Angeles played stout defense even with Aaron Donald sitting, but the offense couldn’t manage much. L.A. will be resting its starters again here, and based on Gruden’s comments leading up to the game, the Raiders will likely be focusing on getting some of their younger players more reps.
“We’re going to try to be smart and also try to keep on schedule in terms of our young players’ development and this team’s development,” Gruden said. “We’ll meet as a staff and determine who’s up and who’s out here in the next day or so.”
It may be a good thing the Rams are resting cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who was beaten multiple times by Las Vegas tight end Hunter Renfrow during joint practices this week. How much — if at all — Renfrow plays remains unknown, but had both played, it would certainly be a matchup to watch.
