The storyline
The Rams have found every possible way to lose games the last few years, including last week. If the Raiders are finally for real, they need to show it Sunday.

Why you should watch
St. Louis rookie quarterback Sam Bradford looks like a cool customer and a real gamer. Having him drop back 55 times again, though, might not be the best approach.
