St. Louis Rams vs Detroit Lions Sun. Oct. 10th 1pm EST
Coming into the 2010 NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams had the number one overall pick and even though there was a lot of debate about which player the team should take, the consensus was that quarterback Sam Bradford was the right decision and the future face of the struggling NFL franchise.
Fortunately, the Rams have played much better than anticipated to start the season as they have won two of the first four games so far. Not only has Sam Bradford lived up to the hype given to every number one overall draft pick, but he has turned into the undisputed leader of the Rams and might be able to lead this team to a NFC West division title this season if teams like the Seahawks Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers continue to struggle this year.
In Week 5, Sam Bradford will lead his Rams into Detroit to face another up and coming team in the Lions. Even though Detroit has had to play without their franchise quarterback in Matthew Stafford, the Lions have played much better than anticipated due to the emergence of rookie running back Jahvid Best and improved play on the defensive side of the football.
Despite the St. Louis Rams having won two games already this season and the Detroit Lions dropping all four of their games, these two teams are very evenly matched coming into Week 5 and should battle it out in a game that will almost certainly come down to the wire in the fourth quarter.
As of right now, the Detroit Lions are favored to come out on top in this one with a -3 point spread, but I believe the St. Louis Rams might be able to pull off the slight upset here.
