By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/11880/morning-ram-blings-week-3-predictions
EARTH CITY, Mo. — Continuing our new Friday tradition, it’s time to take a look at some predictions from around the web on the St. Louis Rams Week 3 meeting with the Dallas Cowboys.
We’ll begin as we usually do with the picks from right here on ESPN.com and we lead off with ESPN NFL Insider Mike Sando.
Sando takes his usual deeper look at this one with the help of NumberFire.
The NFL Live Crew, featuring Brian Dawkins and Herm Edwards make their picks, with a split vote.
CBSSports.com’s Pete Prisco doesn’t see a good outcome for the Rams in this one.
NFL.com thinks it’ll be close but ultimately go to the Cowboys.
My own prediction will go up later today. It probably won’t make Rams fans happy but when you consider that I’ve been off in each of the first two weeks, maybe you’ll change your mind.
I.C.Y.M.I.
A roundup of Thursday’s Rams stories appearing on ESPN.com. … In the Ram-blings, we began the day with a look at early returns on free-agent spending and why the Rams look to have been wise to avoid wading into this year’s crop with big money. … Cowboys reporter Todd Archer and I previewed Sunday’s game. … Next, we looked at Rams coach Jeff Fisher’s mild discontent that safety T.J. McDonald didn’t receive Special Teams Player of the Week honors. … Quarterback Shaun Hill is making progress from his thigh injury but his status for this week remains uncertain. … The Rams’ 2013 loss to Dallas was not pretty and they haven’t forgotten about it. … Finally, we closed the day with the usual injury update.
Elsewhere:
Will try to add this on Friday each week but here’s fantasy expert Matthew Berry’s weekly love/hate picks for this week.
Great read on Seattle’s Richard Sherman from Sando on ESPN Insider.
At 101sports.com, D’Marco Farr writes that Austin Davis could change how he’s viewed with another good outing.
At stltoday.com, Jim Thomas examines receiver Stedman Bailey’s return to the Rams.
Thomas provided some leftover thoughts on last week’s Rams-Buccaneers game.
