Like always, there’s a lot of drama being brought by the Bills and a lot of it comes at the hands of Rex Ryan — who we all know likes to do anything to get in the opposite team’s head. This time, it’s a result of a few words he said about a Ram’s defensive tackle a couple years ago while Rex was the head coach of the New York Jets.

Long story short — you can view the whole story here — Rex said some ‘disrespectful’ things about Aaron Donald when he was picked to the Pro Bowl over Jets’ defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson. The comments he said were resurfaced and might have added to Donald’s motivation come Sunday.

We also had two injury scares at practice on Friday when both LeSean McCoy and Marcell Dareus were added to the team’s injury report. Ultimately, they will both play on Sunday according to reports.

Here’s a look at what the weather will be like on Sunday:

With Dareus back, our defensive line should look much fresher out there with an extra body. It’ll also help that the body being added is one of the more talented nose tackles in the NFL.

Also, we might get our first look at Justin Hunter, the wide-receiver we claimed off waivers right before placing Watkins on the IR. His size and speed should work well in our offense and help ease the pain off the Watkins-injury.

We’ve got a lot of ground to cover, so let’s dive right into things with a look at this week’s money line, spread and over/under for the Bills-Rams matchup.

Money Line: -110

Spread: EVEN

Over/Under: 39

Next, let’s take a look into the Bills’ and Rams’ injury reports for Sunday.

Both LeSean McCoy and Marcell Dareus found themselves on the injury report Friday, but will it effect their game status at all?

We saw two unexpected faces hit the Buffalo Bills‘ injury report on Friday, but the good news is it shouldn’t keep them out of playing against the Rams on Sunday.

LeSean McCoy was reported with an injury to his hand, but was featured on SportsCenter after Friday’s practice and guaranteed that he will be out there Sunday. On the other hand, Marcell Dareus was reported with a hamstring injury, but is still expected to make his 2016 debut in LA.

In addition, Greg Salas will miss his third straight game with a groin injury. We hope to see Justin Hunter out there to add to the receiving crew.

This is an important game for both teams, so being as healthy as possible will be a major key in this one.

Let’s start with the Buffalo Bills’ injury report.

Saving the best for last, let’s take a look at the predictions from me and my team.

One of my favorite parts of Sunday — other than a Buffalo victory — is predicting how everyone will do. Here’s a look at our predictions for the Bills on Sunday.

It’s expected to be a great game between two very tough defenses.

Tomorrow marks the first game the Buffalo Bills have played in Los Angeles since 1992 and also the first time they’ve played the Rams in LA since 1983. It’s been a long time coming, but the Bills are ready to bring the stampede to one of the biggest sports’ markets out there.

It’s time to unveil our predictions for the game on Sunday.

Here we go.

Pete Macias: BuffaLowDown Contributor

“After two big emotional wins, the Bills could be in for a bit of a let down. The Rams’ defense is somewhat tough. I think they still win 21-10.”

Richard Kowalski: BuffaLowDown Contributor

“Buffalo Bills win 24-13. Charles Clay could easily have a great week. I think Robert Woods picks it up where he left off in NE and churns out another great performance. On the other side of the ball, the Bills’ defense will definitely make it tough for Keenum and could have some interceptions and sacks with consistent pressure on him.”

Dennis Moody: BuffaLowDown Co-Editor

Buffalo Bills win 16-6. Aaron Donald gets 2 or more sacks. Charles Clay has best game of the season with 75+ yards receiving. Shady and Gurley both held to under 100 yards rushing. Zach Brown has an interception. BOLD PREDICTION: Rams have more punts than points.

Ryan Brennan: BuffaLowDown Co-Editor

“I believe the Buffalo Bills win their third straight game and 2nd straight road game in a 24-10 victory. LeSean McCoy will score once on the ground, while Taylor will throw for TD’s. If Hunter sees action, him and Clay each grab a TD. If Hunter isn’t really used, Woods will grab the other TD. Aaron Donald has a quiet game and the Bills’ linebackers have their first iffy performance of the season.”

The game will kick off at 4:25 PM.

Be ready to cheer your favorite team on to another Victory Monday!
