Although I'm in the camp that our starters didn't get enough reps in the preseason, especially Goff - Watkins, McVay and Phillips must have determined the starters showed enough in the Raiders game and the first drive against the Chargers to not risk injury.
With Luck out, and the Colts featuring one of the worst defenses in the NFL, we couldn't have asked for a better home opener.
Prediction:
RAMS 27 COLTS 6
Goff throws for 250 yards and 2 TD's one to Sammy and one to Kupp (big confidence builder for Goff heading into the Skins game)
Gurley 80 yards on the ground and another 50 in the air
I don't see Tolzien moving the ball against our D and no way Brissett is ready in six days... defense forces two turnovers.
