Rams open as slight road favorites over Colts in Week 2

Like the rest of the NFC West, the Los Angeles Rams got off to a 1-0 start with a convincing 34-14 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 1. They easily covered the spread, coming into the game as 7.5-point favorites at home.

Their next matchup is expected to be a little bit tougher, primarily because they’ll be on the road with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET. The Rams will visit the Colts in Week 2, the second straight game against the NFC West for Indianapolis.

Not surprisingly, the Rams are favored in this one, but not by a huge margin. According to Tipico, the Rams are 4.5-point road favorites against the Colts. The over/under is 47.5 points, while the Rams are -210 on the money line. That means you’d have to bet $210 to win $100, compared to the Colts’ line of +170, meaning a $100 bet pays out a profit of $170.

The Rams were 9-7 against the spread last season and are 1-0 ATS this year. The Colts failed to cover the spread against the Seahawks, losing 28-16. Seattle was favored by three points going into that game.
