After getting a solid win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2, the St. Louis Rams head into Sunday’s matchup with another chance to improve their record to 2-1 against some not-so-imposing competition. The Dallas Cowboys, who already were lacking talent in several areas, are expected to come into St. Louis without wide receiver Dez Bryant, their best offensive player, and linebacker Rolando McClain, who has been the star of the Dallas defense so far, in the lineup.

While the Rams are certainly banged up in their own right—they may be starting former undrafted free agent Austin Davis at quarterback for the second straight week, while receiver Tavon Austin and H-back Cory Harkey are new additions to the injury report—it would be a big relief for them to get to face a Cowboys team that’s missing two players as impactful as Bryant and McClain.

Here are five Cowboys who could have standout performances for Dallas on Sunday and make things rougher on the Rams.
