Rams open as slight road favorites over Cardinals in Week 13

The Rams hope Week 13 brings a very different result than their 39-point loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night. Unfortunately, they’ll have to face a quarterback with a similar skill set as Lamar Jackson, and instead of being at home, the Rams will be the road team.

Still, despite their embarrassing loss to the Ravens, Los Angeles opened as the favorite over the Cardinals in Week 13. According to BetMGM, the 6-5 Rams are favored by 3.5 points against Arizona, which sits at 3-7-1 through 11 games.

The over/under is 47.5 points, so the oddsmakers expect it to be a fairly high-scoring game. It’s the fifth-highest total of any game this week.

The Cardinals are 5-1-1 against the spread in their last seven games, so they’ve done a good job of keeping games close despite being underdogs in each game. The Rams, on the other hand, 3-3 ATS in their last six games.

The Cardinals have lost four games in a row, but they were close to beating the 49ers twice and lost to the Buccaneers by just three points. This team is much better than its 3-7-1 record, so the Rams should not take them lightly.
