Two hours north of Los Angeles is Bakersfield, where Jordan Love was raised. In 2016, he moved to California to attend college—the same year the Rams made their 21-year absence from Los Angeles official.
When Love’s Green Bay Packers (2-2) take on the Rams (1-3), whose ailing defense has given every opposition quarterback a sense of security this season, it will be like an NFL homecoming game.
Love remarked, “It’ll be fun.” “I’m thrilled about it,” It’s my first time playing at SoFi, so I can’t wait to return home. Additionally, it’s clearly the closest game to my hometown of Bakersfield, California I’m eager to perform in front of my large family, who reside there.
Packers fans will finally fill the stands at Rams owner Stan Kroenke’s magnificent stadium this weekend, marking the first visit by the Packers since SoFi opened. A year before to the stadium’s opening, the Packers’ last game in Southern California was played.
In the first half, Jordan Love and Matt LaFleur
The Packers want to win on the field after their disappointing 28-0 deficit against Minnesota last week, where they rallied late but were unable to overcome the deficit. After missing two games because of a knee injury, Love made a comeback attempt and threw for a career-high 389 yards and four touchdowns, but he also had three interceptions.
With 385.3 yards allowed per game, the Rams have the second-worst defense in the NFL. Love and the Packers’ third-ranked offense should provide a test.
With coordinator Raheem Morris leaving and Aaron Donald retiring, this decline in performance was to be expected, but Los Angeles is finding it difficult to compete while allowing 28.8 points per game, which is the second-worst in the league.
“(Donald) is unique,” remarked Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur, who in 2017 oversaw the Rams’ offensive scheme. Few men possess the same ability to ruin a game as he does.
However, I’ve been pleased by this Rams team. They’re a lot younger up front. They do admirably, in my opinion, in many of their pick games. It is evident that the effort is exceptional in every way.
