Bill Speros writes: “The Rams kept the Seahawks out of the end zone for 57 minutes Sunday – but needed a missed field goal at the gun to hold on for a 21-19 victory. Rams QB Matt Stafford stands as the favorite in MVP betting markets. While the Bucs may win the NFC South — again — (watch out for Carolina), they remain in danger of losing their third straight here. Until Sunday, the Bucs had covered in 7 straight games after a loss. But their defense has been exposed in consecutive weeks by New England and Buffalo. Baker Mayfield remains a baller among baller. But — to quote Gisele Bündchen — Baker cannot throw the ball, catch the ball, run the ball, and stop the other team from scoring with the ball. By the way, make sure your Thanksgiving Day turkey is out of the freezer and in the fridge before kickoff.”

Sportsnaut: Los Angeles Rams 27, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17
Matt Johnson writes: “Maybe things would be different if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ offense were healthy. Unfortunately, the absences at wide receiver strip away the best chance Baker Mayfield would have against the Los Angeles Rams. On Sunday Night Football, we expect a defensive clinic from the Rams, with Puka Nacua delivering some big YAC plays and Kyren Williams going for 80-plus yards and a score against Tampa Bay.”
