Rams vs. Cardinals Odds
Game Preview
The Rams’ loss to the Panthers last weekend, 31-28, is a huge setback because they now have the same record as the Seahawks, while the 49ers sit half a game behind. Though, this team is fantastic, as it is balanced across all positions.
The top MVP candidate, Matt Stafford, has 32 TD passes with 4 picks, while the NFL’s leading receiving TD leader is Davante Adams with 14. Plus, there is Puka Nacua with 1,019 receiving yards, third-best in the league. Meanwhile, the defense allows 17.5 points per game, 2nd second-fewest in the NFL.
Cardinals benched Kyler Murray and now go with Jacoby Brissett as the starting QB. Brissett plays well, with 13 TD passes and 4 picks this year, but the team isn’t posting good results and is currently riding a 4-game losing streak.
Arizona lost the last two events by three points, vs. Jacksonville, 27-24 OT, and on the road in Tampa Bay, 20-17. They will be looking to disrupt the division rival’s plans and hurt their playoff ambitions here.
Rams vs. Cardinals Head to Head
The Los Angeles Rams lead the series 49-30-2.
Rams vs. Cardinals Predictions
Since Arizona doesn’t have a notable defense, it’s also pretty fragile; this will be a good opportunity for Stafford and the boys to bounce back following last week’s loss to Carolina. We pick the Rams to win and cover an 8.5-point spread.
