Odds correct at time of publishing
The Rams have been solid on defense, especially against running backs, allowing only 0.6 touchdowns per game last season. With their quarterback facing extra rushers often, they have to work hard to score. On the other hand, the Cardinals have struggled, giving up a lot of touchdowns to running backs, averaging 1.2 per game. This matchup looks like it could be a tough battle for both teams to reach high scores. The odds suggest it's a close call, but with both offenses facing pressure, betting on the Rams to score under 31.5 points makes sense. Just remember, scoring can be unpredictable, and if the Cardinals find their rhythm, it could turn out differently.
Los Angeles Rams vs Arizona Cardinals: Puka Nacua Under 93.5 Receiving Yards (-111)
Odds correct at time of publishing
The odds for Puka Nacua to have under 93.5 receiving yards look promising. The Rams' offense has faced more extra rushers than average, which can make it tougher for any receiver to get open. Plus, the Cardinals' defense struggled against the pass last season, allowing more touchdowns to wide receivers than most teams. However, the Rams' quarterback is getting pressure often, and that could affect Nacua's chances of racking up big yards.
Los Angeles Rams vs Arizona Cardinals: Matthew Stafford Over 0.5 Rushing Yards (Alt) (+105)
Odds correct at time of publishing
Matthew Stafford has been showing solid form lately, and the Rams' offense is looking to get some momentum going. The Cardinals struggled last season, allowing a lot of rushing touchdowns, which makes this a good spot for Stafford to pick up some rushing yards. With the Rams also having a decent record on their home turf, they can take advantage of the Cardinals' weak defense. One risk here is that both quarterbacks faced similar pressure, but Stafford's ability to escape and run could work in his favor. If the Rams get a lead, they might lean on the ground game even more, giving Stafford a better chance to exceed those rushing yards. Overall, betting on him to get over 0.5 rushing yards feels like a solid choice.
Los Angeles Rams vs Arizona Cardinals: Davis Allen Over 6.5 Receiving Yards (Alt) (-110)
Odds correct at time of publishing
Davis Allen has been getting more chances lately, and he's looking to make a splash. The Rams' offense has been good at creating openings, especially with teams focusing on their running game. Allen is in a good spot to grab some receiving yards, especially since the Cardinals struggle to defend against tight ends. The risk here is how close the teams are in talent. The Rams have a solid chance to move the ball, but the game could be tight. Still, with the way Allen is being used, going for over 6.5 receiving yards seems like a smart bet.
