00:00Dr. Chow, later today, L.A. versus L.A. in the same stadium.
00:05So no home team, no road team today.
00:07A rare matchup between the Chargers and the Rams.
00:11Rams are, of course, the big favorites in this one,
00:13and they will be without Devontae Adams.
00:15But, Dr. Chow, the Chargers have been off a week,
00:17and you mean to tell me that they didn't get any of those defensive backs
00:21back for the Chargers this week?
00:22What's going on with their defense?
00:24Well, Derwin James got put on injured reserve,
00:27and he's arguably their best defensive player.
00:28The only shred of good news besides some rest coming off the bye
00:33is Joe Alt is back for the offensive line for the L.A. Chargers.
00:37And it's actually, for the first time in a while,
00:39guaranteed win for an L.A. team in SoFi Stadium.
00:43There haven't been a lot of them this year.
00:45I saw a stat.
00:46The Arizona Cardinals have won more games in SoFi Stadium this year
00:50than the L.A. teams combined.
00:54Speaking of that situation, too, with L.A.,
00:57what is your expectation for Devontae Adams' rest of season two?
01:00Because that seems to be one that is hanging on everybody's mind.
01:03Do you think we see him again in the regular season
01:04based on the information you've had?
01:07Absolutely.
01:08Anytime you have surgery,
01:10you think the guy's gone for the season.
01:12Hamstring surgery is unusual.
01:14But this is not a hamstring repair.
01:15This is a distal hamstring avulsion.
01:17All they're doing is resecting the tendon.
01:19I actually think he's closer to the six-week mark
01:22than the 10-week mark.
01:23I think he's back in December,
01:25and I would vote earlier than later.
