Hopefully we'll witness or be given an indication that our run game is back in sync (like last year). JG better out coach this little kid since we're at home and there should be no offensive communication issues. Also hopefully we're not overlooking this game (as 6.5 favorites) for the Packers next week.
Without Lee, I'm concerned about our defense but that loss can be rectified if our offense controls the ball/clock and scores TD's, not FG's. Hoping for a statement game from Zeke and our defensive front 4 starts becoming a CONSISTENT pain in the *** for offenses this and many games to come.
Go Boys

We need another 3rd down option besides Bease and Witt. They are getting the most attention on 3rd and long. Teams know those are the two Dak will most likely go to when it's a passing situation on 3rd down. Bease is the best blitz/rush beater because he can get open so quickly. Teams know this and are double teaming him on 3rd downs. I'm hoping they have a package where they get both Bease and Switz on the field to get another receiver who can get open quickly on 3rd down.
Hello Switzer.

The Rams are a young, talented, and rejuvenated team looking to make a statement against the biggest market team in the league.

McVay is a coach that is inexperienced, sure. But we also don't have a great read on him yet and he's playing with house money.

No one expects him to win this game.

Hopefully being at home after a tough road win has us refocused and out of the last season hangover, because the Rams are a dangerous team.

We are very young too. Only guys over 30 are Witten, McFadden, Lee, Durant, Scandrick, Carroll & L.P. Ladouceur.

Los Angeles Rams At Dallas Cowboys Bold Predictions: Jerry Jones’ Tears Will Be Delicious
The LA Rams are an underdog with the sports betting community in Dallas, but they don’t realize how hungry Aaron Donald’s defense is.


- The Rams Defense will limit the Cowboys passing to 175 yards and 115 yards rushing

- Aaron Donald will dominate with 3 sacks
Now that the Rams star DT has been with the Rams for 3 games, it’s time for him to flex his muscles. Watch for Donald to power through the famously strong Cowboys O-line, throwing QB Dak Prescott to the grass at least 3 times.

- Todd Gurley will have his best game of his career
The Cowboys have up-and-down this season with their defense, but are currently ranked 13th against the run. I’m predicting that this will be a down game for the boys.


This is going to be a fun matchup as a Rams fan because we’re playing with house money. The Cowboys are expected to win, yet the Rams are coming off 10 days of rest and a lot of offensive momentum. My bold prediction for the final score?

Rams win, 35-13.

rest...

So....basically by this prediction, the Rams are clearly the best team in the league by far. Goff is better than Brady and ARodgers combined. I am guessing if this game was in Los Angeles, the writer would predict Lambs 178 Boys 2 (safety).

The Cowboys tend to play well against the smaller, quicker DTs.. It's the huge,Snacks types that have given them problems.

Brown had an impressive catch against AZ.

Butler showed up as a deep threat.

They'll work Switzer in eventually.

Maybe Rico someday.

The guy writing the blog said his predictions were outlandish in the intro. This was another purposeful bad prediction.

"The dear readers of Turf Show Times know that I’ve been writing up the bold predictions this season and they have been, to put it mildly, pretty ridiculous. I was so bold last week, that my buddy Dave Scales, a San Francisco sports fan, took notice and offered me a bet I could not refuse:"

Delusional prediction.

The Cowboys are the better team, and are just starting to warm up. If "Dinner" is ready, the Rams have little chance to win.

If we are slow out of the gate again, we could see another game like Arizona but I don't see the Cowboys losing at home this week after two rugged road games.

I think the Cowboys roll with their 3-2-6 "Heavy Dime" package and Goff struggles a bit in this one. Hopefully Marinelli realizes that these kids are "Man" corners and our tackling might be softest inside the #'s with Jaylon and Lee iffy.

Still, we're going to win.

31-17 the good guys.

I don't think the score will be that, but I do see the Rams having a very legit shot of getting a win. I think their offense will give the defense fits, especially if Lee is out.

Yep...Lee being out is a huge issue obviously. Paea (SP?) being dinged doesn't help either. Not good.

Well there's no way any of that happens. They win two games and look halfway decent and their players, media, and fans are talking dynasty.
Drafting in the top 5 for nearly 20 years has enabled them to stockpile some talent. I agree that it is possible for them to win but if they blow us out we should cease any talk of playoff aspirations immediately. They are still the Rams. Easy to see them winning a terrible division this year and playoffs but they are still the Rams and they are still a team we should beat if we fancy ourselves a contender.

It's a team that's been on the downside for so long, I'm happy their fans now have some cause for optimism.

Which I look forward to seeing Dallas crush on Sunday.


And you guys very well may. You were a 13-3 playoff team last season, your expected to win at home against a rookie coach and a team that was 4-12 a year ago. But don't be shocked if we come in there and make a game out of it; hell we may even win.... doubt it, but we could.
