THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- It's been a mostly positive offseason, training camp and preseason for second-year quarterback Jared Goff,Womens Dan Feeney Jersey, who guided the Los Angeles Rams to three touchdowns and a field goal over the first six possessions he directed during the preseason.

On Saturday,Authentic Dan Fouts Jersey, though, Goff took a bit of a step back by turning the ball over on a fumble and interception to help the Los Angeles Chargers score 14 points in their 21-19 win over the Rams.

The fumble was returned 76 yards by Melvin Ingram for a touchdown,Womens Philip Rivers Jersey, and while Goff was guilty of holding onto the ball too long, it didn't help that Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa blew past right tackle Rob Havenstein to strip-sack Goff.

The interception, though, was Goff's fault as he overthrew a wide open Sammy Watkins into the hands of Jason Verrett.

Although Rams head coach Sean McVay hinted the interception might have been the result of a miscommunication with Goff and Watkins - likely the result of Watkins still learning his way with a new team - Goff took all the blame.

"No, I just kind of came off it a little bit," he said. "I can't do that. I can't make that throw. Just a bad throw. I came off it."

and on the preseason is 24 of 30 for 250 yards and a touchdown.,Goff finished 5 of 6 for 56 yards

McVay is focusing on the big-picture numbers rather than getting caught up in the two mistakes.

He said, the way that he handled it was good and we're going to continue to grow every single day. Just like I was saying, "I think he's improved a lot. I think the sample size is the thing that I'll continue to go back with. He got a chance to play 35 snaps against Oakland where you can really get into a real rhythm. Even after the turnover with the interception, had a couple throws. But, those are where you get the best indicators of how a guy responds. I thought his demeanor, we ran the football a lot on that drive, I think when you get a chance to kind of really fight your way back from some adversity that you've faced throughout the course of a game, it's going to be very important for us to maximize practice if that's the direction where we go where he doesn't play against Green Bay next week."

Goff is likely to sit out the Rams' final preseason game against the Packers Thursday, and if so, he believes he's ready to start the regular season Sept. 10 against the 49ers.

" he said." A lot to learn from and a lot of stuff that we can get better from.","Yeah I think so. I think,Authentic Philip Rivers Jersey like I said, but I think in all three games as a whole I feel like I did a good job and feel like I got a lot out of it - got some good work and some good situational stuff,Authentic Dan Feeney Jersey, I would've liked to have finished the day on a little bit of a better note

Notes: Second-year tight end Temarrick Hemingway suffered a probable season-ending broken fibula Saturday against the Chargers. Hemingway had made big strides since his rookie year and was on target for a role in the tight-end rotation. Said head coach Sean McVay,Womens Rayshawn Jenkins Jersey, it will be interesting to see who kind of steps up to fill that void because there certainly is one left by what we had anticipated for Temarrick for the start of the season. Hopefully we'll get some good news back where it's not going to be a season-ending injury, "He was one of the guys that I was extremely encouraged with - we were as a staff. We were really counting on him for some big things because I think when you talk about the length,,Authentic Rayshawn Jenkins Jersey, his movement - when he gets the ball in his hands,Authentic Melvin Gordon Jersey, so this is a big loss for us. Like I said,Womens Melvin Gordon Jersey, the athleticism, he's a guy that can create after the catch. He offered a lot of flexibility with what we could do with some of our personnel groupings, but we'll find that out in the next few days."

Rookie wide receiver Josh Reynolds is making his presence felt. A fourth-round pick out of Texas A&M, he pulled in a touchdown pass for the second straight week - this one a 38-yarder from Sean QB Mannion - and showed toughness going over the middle and holding onto the ball after absorbing a brutal hit. "It was a great ball by Sean Mannion with those two connecting again with a big play that almost ended up being the difference in us winning and losing that football game," said Rams head coach Sean McVay. "I thought it showed a lot from Josh in terms of his toughness,Womens Dan Fouts Jersey, both mentally and physically with a couple of those plays."

great player. I mean really huge catch radius I mean I think that was evident he made an awesome, so I think for catch radius,Said Mannion: "He's a great, awesome play going over the middle, so that speaks volumes of him to take a shot like that and hop right up and go make another play. But, I think skillset wise, he's tall, just played with awesome toughness and then that same drive came back and caught the touchdown, he's lanky. He's a real fast runner, he's the kind of guy who goes out and gets the ball with his arms and has the height and the speed to be a vertical threat."

but appears on target to be ready for the season opener Sept. 10 against the Colts. Austin will not play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Packers.,Wide receiver Tavon Austin has missed all of the preseason with hamstring issues

"If it was a normal game week, which will be fun.", I think he would be able to play, reaching some higher speeds on the treadmill and stuff where it's 100 percent of the weight that he's supporting. So," said Rams head coach Sean McVay. "He's made huge progress with Reggie (trainer Reggie Scott) over the last week where he's running, those have been some good things and you'll start to figure out - we're going to have to start brainstorming some ways with how we're going to utilize Tavon in that game
