Rams vs. Buccaneers picks against the spreadJon Hoefling: Los Angeles Rams (-6.5)
The Bucs started the year so promising but have started slipping. The Rams defense is no joke and if Puka Nacua can start getting more involved in their offense like he was at the start of the year, the Rams might be Super Bowl contenders yet again.
Jordan Mendoza: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6.5)
Los Angeles may be playing like the best team in the league right now, but this spread feels too big considering Tampa Bay is still a great squad. The Buccaneers are able to at least stay in striking distance.
Lorenzo Reyes: Los Angeles Rams (-6.5)
The injuries facing the Buccaneers continue to be too significant to overlook. I don’t love this line, but I still think L.A. has enough to clear it.
Tyler Dragon: Los Angeles Rams (-6.5)
The Rams are playing the best football in the NFC right now. Tampa Bay’s lost two straight games. It’s probably going to be three straight losses after this week.
Blake Schuster: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6.5)
Tampa is just close enough to getting back on track that I don’t mind riding with Baker in this one.
Christopher Bumbaca: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6.5)
The sledding has been tough lately for Baker Mayfield and Co. But I don’t think Baker will go gently into that good night.
