Los Angeles Rams: Staff predictions vs. Dallas Cowboys

The Los Angeles Rams kept their playoff hopes alive with a statement win over the Seattle Seahawks and have another tough test against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Los Angeles Rams are going to have to win out and get some help if the team wants any chance of making the playoffs this season and have some momentum heading into the final three games of the season.

After a blowout win over the Arizona Cardinals, the Rams played the perfect game against the Seattle Seahawks, sucked the energy out of the team and walked away with the victory.

The Rams have another likely playoff foe in Week 15 in the Dallas Cowboys, although we can all agree that the Cowboys are not the most deserving playoff team as the NFC East has been a mess this season.

Regardless, they should not be taken for granted as the Los Angeles Rams cannot afford a loss if they want a chance of making the playoffs. Here is how the LA Sports Hub staff sees this game going down.

Jamaal Artis (13-7): 21-14, Dallas Cowboys

The Los Angeles Rams need to keep winning and they need the Los Angeles Chargers to win this week. That’s right folks this week Los Angeles NFL is in the middle of a convergence.

The Rams face the Cowboys on the road with very little margin for error needing a win to keep pace in the playoff race.

The Cowboys are in the midst of 3-game losing streak and are in a similar spot as the Rams. They need to win or they’re likely out of a playoff spot.

It’s the mediocre force versus the craptacular object. The Rams being on the road makes it worse and with the Cowboys having a showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles during the Christmas week they’re desperation makes me think they win.

Hil Lopez (12-12): 27-24, Dallas Cowboys

The Rams face a tough interconference battle against the Cowboys on Sunday.

Jared Goff has played better recently and looks to continue his winning ways in hopes of keeping the Rams in the playoff race who are only 1 game out.

On the other hand, Dallas desperately needs to win this game as they have lost 3 in a row and look lost in their team identity offensively.

With both teams both playing for high stakes, I think the Cowboys will survive this encounter on a last-second field goal 27-24.

Redan Lopez (10-12): 30-24, Los Angeles Rams

The Cowboys are reeling and on a 4-game losing streak. Meanwhile, the Rams seem to be reborn and have won two in a row. I think the Rams will run over the Cowboys, who haven’t been able to make adjustments or figure out an offensive identity with coach Jason Garett.

Though my prediction shows a close game, don’t be fooled. Most of the Cowboys’ points will be scored in garbage time.

Jason Reed (13-13): 35-27, Los Angeles Rams

The Los Angeles Rams have had outings where the offense looks terrible but have had nights where the offense looked like the Rams of old.

The Rams are going to find the endzone five times against a Cowboys’ defense that is not that special and get out to a big lead, where Dallas will slowly try to chip but won’t be able to outpace the Rams.

Dallas will score late in this game to make it an eight-point game and make it seem like this game is closer than it really is when in reality, it won’t be.
