Key Details
Los Angeles Rams
The Los Angeles Rams are coming off a brutal loss to the Panthers, but are becoming one of the elite teams this season. Even after the loss, the Rams offense has been elite with Matthew Stafford having another strong season with 32 while connecting with superstar receiver Puka Nacua, and a bounce-back year candidate, Davante Adams. The Rams’ defense is also becoming an elite unit with various players emerging as stars, including Byron Young, Kobie Turner, and more, to feast on a poor offense.
Arizona Cardinals
Arizona, on the other hand, is having a nightmare season, with injuries, underachieving players, and poor coaching. The Arizona Cardinals’ promising start to the season became a nightmare with their star quarterback done with the franchise, poor coaching, and awful game planning. Betters should not be shocked by the Cardinals’ poor offense, with the data showing their poor offensive numbers ranking below the top 15, and their defense ranking being near the bottom 20.
Prediction
Betters should easily go to the Los Angeles Rams, because they are coming off a brutal loss and would like to pick on an inferior opponent. The Cardinals are a dysfunctional organization and have been playing poorly, and could fall victim to the Rams and their red-hot offense. The Rams will easily cover the line against the Cardinals, who they have beaten four out of their last six encounters.
