The Oakland Raiders and St. Louis Rams both have plenty of issues to work out this offseason, but for now, both teams are still trying to figure things out and win some football games before the season mercifully reaches its conclusion. St. Louis has been the much better team this year, though they're only sitting at 4-7 and are well out the race for the NFC West and any wild card discussions.
Raiders vs. Rams 2014 live stream: Time, TV schedule and how to watch online
Here’s how to watch the “showdown” between the St. Louis Rams and Oakland Raiders.
The biggest thing the Rams can hang their hat on is that, of the four teams they beat this season, three of them are playoff contenders. That includes the division rival Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers, as well as the Denver Broncos, who lead the AFC West. That division is home to the Raiders, who have just a single win on the season after a victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12.
Oakland has been outscored by 109 points this season. Latavius Murray was a big reason the Raiders managed to beat the Chiefs, putting up over 100 yards and two touchdowns on just four carries. He was expected to do much more damage before he went down with an concussion Now, Murray won't be able to play against the Rams, who don't have much to worry about as far as Oakland's league-worst running game and No. 26 passing game are concerned.
St. Louis isn’t exactly lighting up the stat sheet, either. The Rams throw for just 211.9 yards per game and rush for just 101.4, ranking 24th and 19th, respectively. They’ve won games primarily due to their defense this season, though that hasn’t been performing particularly well, either. It would figure be more than enough against the Raiders, though.
