Los Angeles started off the season with a blowout win against the Colts, then lost to the Redskins in Week 2.
The Rams have benefited from new additions at wide receiver including Sammy Watkins and Cooper Kupp.
What should you expect when the two teams square off? The Rams should be able to put up points against the Cowboys defense. However, Dallas is going to be able to match L.A.’s output, and has slightly more offensive firepower. We expect a close game, but like the Cowboys in a backdoor cover situation. Expect a shootout making the over a nice play in today’s game.
