ESPN: 14 / Rams/ 4-2/ One free-agent signing from the offseason that probably hasn't gotten enough notice -- except in St. Louis -- is the Rams grabbing
Will Witherspoon. He's a big reason the Rams' D is giving up 5.5 fewer points per game.

Foxsports: 11/ Rams/ Though underdogs for next Sunday’s battle with San Diego, the Rams should come out flying.
Marc Bulger and
Torry Holt combined for 154 yards and 3 touchdowns two weeks ago against Seattle, and St. Louis had a bye week to prepare for the Chargers. While St. Louis is all caught up in World Series fever and whether or not Kenny Rogers had gunk on his hand — their football team can gain some ground on Seattle in the division over the next few weeks with both Shaun Alexander and Matt Hasselbeck out with injury. On the topic of the Cardinlas, can someone address Tony La Russa’s incredible mane of hair? Is he growing it out? Is that even possible at age 62? The guy defies logic.

13: St. Louis Rams
San Diego, with its pass rush decimated and coming off a loss, rates as a nine-point favorite over St. Looie. Kind of inflated, wouldn't you say? Makes you wonder what exactly the Rams were doing during their bye week.
