Can the Rams bounce back from Sunday’s loss and take down the Cardinals this week?
Week 13 didn’t go the way the Los Angeles Rams hoped or expected. They were the second-biggest favorites of the week, giving 10.5 points to the Carolina Panthers on the road. And yet, they lost outright, 31-28, in stunning fashion.
Sean McVay was still optimistic after the game and is looking forward to the Rams bouncing back this week against the Arizona Cardinals, a team they’re once again heavily favored to beat.
According to the latest odds, the Rams are 7.5-point road favorites against the Cardinals. The over/under is set at 48.5 points, as well.
The Cardinals won’t have Kyler Murray in this game but they’ve actually been playing better with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback. Trey McBride has been the best tight end in the game since Brissett took over, presenting the Rams with a big challenge defensively.
The Rams have already lost two games as double-digit favorites this season, falling to the 49ers and now the Panthers. They had been steamrolling teams, including those same 49ers they lost to and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but they got a reality check from Carolina on Sunday.
Can they respond and get back on track with a win over the Cardinals this weekend?
