Cardinals vs. Rams Odds
Game Preview
Cards lost to the Lions at home, 45-21. Their defense is terrible in all aspects of play. It ranks bottom 10 in allowed scrimmage, passing, and rushing yards, and is officially the worst scoring defense, allowing 32.4 points per game. The offense is somewhat better, yet still pretty limited and fragile.
Arizona lost the previous 4 matches. In each of those games, the team allowed 31 or more points, and in the last 3, it gave up 117 points combined.
The Rams played one hell of a game against the Bills on Monday Night Football, but they lost 37-34 in overtime. They had a chance to win, but Harrison Mevis’ field goal attempt was blocked in overtime.
Sean McVay’s unit limits rivals to just 285.2 yards from scrimmage per game, the 3rd-fewest in the league. However, the Rams allow 20 points and have problems restraining the rival’s run game. This often leads to big plays that hurt them, and we saw that on Monday night.
Cardinals vs. Rams Predictions
Stafford and the boys couldn’t ask for a better opponent right now. They’re facing a demoralized, weak rival with the NFL’s worst defense. So it’s the Rams covering the spread here.
