Chargers vs Rams injury report and team news

The Rams top the league for passing yardage with 1,919.
Los Angeles ChargersLos Angeles RamsA derby decided before kickoff
Herbert has thrown eight interceptions against five scores, and his team has not won a game. That combination explains a 0-6 start more completely than most records do.
Across the corridor, Stafford has 1,989 yards of his own and a team that finishes 69.0% of its red-zone trips.
There is one consolation for the visitors. Their defence allows opponents just 31.1% on third down, which sits among the five best marks anywhere in the league.
