Things did not get much better in their second preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. The Condors got blanked again as Frank Gore ran for two touchdowns and 98 yards in two carries. Gore made it appear as if he was playing Madden on "Super Easy" difficulty. He wasn't the only one running well, LaMichael James ran for a total of 122 yards in 13 carries, with a pair of touchdowns himself. Final score, 52-0 San Francisco.
When it seemed like things could only go up from here, they continued to plummet even harder. Sam Bradford of the St. Louis Rams simply played out of his mind. He was perfect in his 16 attempts, throwing for 220 yards and four touchdowns. Isaiah Pead and Daryl Richardson carried the ball five times each, finding one too many holes in the Condors Swiss Cheese Defense. They ran for a combined 132 yards and three touchdowns. Rams took it with ease 65-0, leaving the Condors dazed and confused, as if they had been hit with a flash bang.
In the Los Angeles Condors preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals, sports nation began wondering how long it would take for L.A. to get their first points. In the opening kickoff, A.J. Williams of the Condors broke two tackles and performed a quick a spin move off a defender to find a gaping hole. Wilson took advantage of that hole, juking out one defender and stiff-arming the kicker to the ground, following up with an impression of Usain Bolt in a straightaway sprint to the end zone. It had been the first points the team had registered during preseason, but they would be outdone with the likes of Ryan Lindley throwing for 314 yards and three touchdowns, and the trio of Ryan Williams, Andre Ellington and Stepfan Taylor running a combined 275 yards and four touchdowns. Final score, Cardinals 49, Condors 7.
