What happened: Los Angeles ranks second in total offense at 417.0 yards per game but 19th in scoring at 21.3 points per game. The gap continued with a third missed field goal of the season on an early possession.

Why it matters: Drives that stall in scoring range keep inferior opponents in games late. Los Angeles was reported October 8 with just 1.058M dollars in cap room, limiting outside fixes for kicking and finishing.
