Los Angeles Rams vs. Dallas Cowboys: 5 Bold predictions for Week 15
2. Teams combine for 10 sacks
Though it has certainly improved in recent weeks, the Rams offensive line has been a huge issue for this team at many points throughout the season. They have simply put Todd Gurley and Jared Goff in bad spots time and again. On Sunday in Dallas, the Cowboys defensive line led by a surging Maliek Collins, DeMarcus Lawrence and Robert Quinn will take advantage of that.
At the same time though, Dallas comes into this game once again with Connor Williams out and Xavier Su’a-Filo in at guard. Though they can push Travis Frederick down in protection to try and deal with Aaron Donald, the Rams defensive tackle is too fierce to keep at bay and then open up things for the rest of the defense.
When it’s all done given these circumstances, we’ll see a sack party in Big D as the teams combine for 10 sacks.
1. Cowboys end losing streak with 10-point win
Considering the recent form of both of these teams, this might be the boldest prediction of the bunch. The Dallas Cowboys have been accustomed lately to hot starts that cool off fast while the Los Angeles Rams have been able to run their gameplan on both sides of the ball and just grind away at wins. On Sunday, the roles will reverse a bit.

Dallas has the personnel and talent to establish the run game with Elliott and then control everything. They can largely keep the ball out of Goff’s hands and get the Rams out of a rhythm. If they can stick to that course of action, the Cowboys can protect their house and get back to .500 on the season going into Philadelphia next week.
