Cowboys vs. Rams Best Bet ATS: Cowboys -4.5
Few head coaches seem to care less about the preseason than LA’s Sean McVay. The Rams are 1-8 SU in their last nine exhibition games, getting outscored 220-126. I’ll take Dallas and the points.
Cowboys vs. Rams Best Total: OVER 35.5
LA allowed 30+ points in all three preseason games last season, with two of those contests exceeding the current 35.5 total. I’ll roll with the over.
Cowboys Offensive Player to Watch: QB Trey Lance
Quarterback Trey Lance, the former 2021 third-overall pick, finally suits up for Dallas after being acquired in a trade last season. Lance is battling Cooper Rush for the No. 2 QB spot behind Dak Prescott, making this preseason crucial for his NFL future. A promising start is vital.
Rams Offensive Player to Watch: QB Stetson Bennett
Former Georgia star Stetson Bennett is also under pressure to perform after stepping away from the Rams during last year’s rookie season. The two-time national champion is expected to backup starter Matthew Stafford while Jimmy Garoppolo serves his two-game suspension, amplifying the importance of a strong preseason showing.
Cowboys Defensive Player to Watch: LB DeMarvion Overshown
Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown missed last season with a torn ACL, but he’s been turning heads in training camp. He’ll be eager to get back into live NFL action.
Rams Defensive Player to Watch: NT Tyler Davis
Rookie nose tackle Tyler Davis, a sixth-round pick in the 2024 Draft, is set to back up starter Bobby Brown III. With Brown likely sitting out the preseason, Davis has a prime opportunity to prove himself and earn regular-season snaps.
