Los Angeles Rams (1-0) vs Indianapolis (0-1) Game Preview

Why Indianapolis Will Win

If Chicago could run on the Rams …
It was one of the justifications by the Bears for not playing Justin Fields more – the Los Angeles defensive front might ruin his career in Week 1. But the miserable Chicago offensive line didn’t get totally destroyed, and it actually provided a bit of a push for over five yards per carry and a nice day from David Montgomery.

What’s Going To Happen

The Los Angeles defensive front was more than fine against Chicago. Aaron Donald might have been too silent, but the team was never out of control in any way.

The one big issue for the Bears – besides getting hit for two home runs – was the inability to do anything down the field. Andy Dalton was fine, but he dinked and dunked without making any big plays. Last week against Seattle, Carson Wentz was fine, but he dinked and dunked without making any big plays.

The Colt running game won’t get it done.
