ANGELES» The Raiders were back. The LOS

Rams were better.

Rookie John Kelly rushed for 56 yards and a touchdown, and the Los Angeles Rams welcomed the Raiders back to the Coliseum with a 1915 preseason victory over Oakland on Saturday.

Chris Warren rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown for the Raiders in their return to the venerable stadium that was their home for 13 seasons during their largely successful tenure in Los Angeles. Their stillpassionate Southern California fan base turned out in force, filling the 95yearold arena with black jerseys and loud cheers.

There was more excitement in the stands than on the field for long stretches of a preseason game that was even more meaningless than the usual August affair.

Both teams rested nearly all of their presumptive starters and used no significant parts of their playbook, thanks in part to a weird NFL scheduling decision that forced these teams to play an exhibition 23 days before they meet in their regularseason opener in Oakland.

Although both coaches revealed as little about their teams as possible, Sean Mcvay still got his first chance to face Jon Gruden.
