Rams open as slight road favorites over Eagles in Week 2

The Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles are trending in different directions entering their Week 2 bout. The Rams knocked off the Dallas Cowboys in the season opener, while the Eagles blew a 17-point lead to Washington and lost 27-17 on the road.

The Rams will try to start a two-game winning streak with another victory on Sunday afternoon in Philadelphia, hoping to take down another NFC East foe. They’ll do so as the favorites in this road game, coming in with an edge over the Eagles.

According to BetMGM, the Rams are 1.5-point favorites against Philadelphia. They’re one of five road teams favored to win in Week 2, and the over/under is set at 46.5 points – only the eighth-highest total in the NFL this week.

In the season opener against Dallas, the Rams were 2.5-point underdogs for most of the offseason before the line flipped to Rams -1 just before kickoff. Either way, they covered the spread by winning 20-17, while the Eagles failed to cover in their game.
