The 1-1 Denver Broncos are set to host the 1-1 Los Angeles Rams in a Week 3 Sunday Night Football matchup. A Broncos Wire preview published by Yahoo Sports canvassed Rams Wire writer Cameron DaSilva on Los Angeles’ form and the contest.

DaSilva said the Rams looked sharper in Week 2 after a sluggish opening performance, and praised their running game. He described the team’s form as difficult to judge, given the contrast between those performances.

He identified special teams as a weakness, citing a missed field goal, a muffed kickoff and inconsistent punting. Those concerns sit alongside his assessment that the Rams’ running game has been strong.

DaSilva predicted a close Rams win, 20-17, saying he expected their offence to move the ball against Denver. The score is his forecast; the source package provides no game result.
