How to Watch Rams vs. Chargers in NFL Preseason Week 2 with & without cable

We're somehow already at 2nd of three preseason games, with the Rams and Chargers set to face off for the rights to the Actually Doesn't Matter This Time But It's A Regional Rivalry So It Still Kinda Does trophy on Saturday.

The fun twist to this weekend's game? Sean McVay isn't coaching! Surely no one will overreact to that. McVay will be doing some broadcast stuff before spending most of his time in the coaches box while assistant Aubrey Pleasant will run the show. There probably won't be a whole lot of starters suiting up for the Rams on Saturday, but if you're tuning in for the second preseason game in late August, you 1. already know that and 2. definitely don't care. If their preseason opener against the Cowboys was any indication, they'll still find a way to make you nervous all the way until the very end. Here are the details you absolutely must know.
