Last week before kickoff, the Rams went from underdogs to slight favorites over the Dallas Cowboys. They covered the 1-point spread, winning by three points in Week 1.
This week, the opposite has happened.
The Rams opened as 1.5-point favorites over the Eagles heading into Sunday’s matchup, but that line has since flipped the other direction. According to BetMGM, the Rams are now 1-point underdogs to the Eagles on the road.
The over/under has also dropped a point, from 46.5 to 45.5.
The most likely reason for this spread shift is the encouraging injury news Philadelphia has gotten in the last few days. The Eagles will have Lane Johnson back at right tackle, Miles Sanders in the backfield, Jason Peters healthy at left tackle and Javon Hargrave at nose tackle.
They were nowhere near healthy in Week 1 against Washington, but the Eagles will be in much better shape this week against the Rams.
