Best Bets for Rams vs Cardinals

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (Sun, 4:06 p.m. ET)

Los Angeles Rams -9.5 (-110)

A large number, but the gap in quarterback experience and roster health is wide. Beck is making his first NFL start with a Cardinals receiving corps that has lost key pieces, and the Rams' defense has been one of the better units in the league. Los Angeles should control the game, although a rookie quarterback on the road is a reason to respect the number.

Under 38.5 (-110)

One of the lowest totals on the Sunday board, and it fits this game. A rookie quarterback making his debut, a Rams passing game without its top two receivers for an extended stretch, and two defenses that can make life hard on the offense all point toward a low-scoring afternoon.

Best Player Prop Bets for Rams vs Cardinals

Blake Corum Anytime Touchdown (+125)

With Kyren Williams reportedly sidelined for this game after the Rams' bye, Corum becomes the most direct running back option in Los Angeles. He has handled carries in recent weeks and is the clear lead back behind the first-team offense, which makes his plus-money price a useful value on a big road favorite.

Trey McBride Anytime Touchdown (+290)

McBride is Arizona's most dependable target and has caught passes in a long run of games, which makes him the natural safety valve for a rookie quarterback. He is also featured in the site's own parlay, and his plus-money touchdown price gives a real chance to cash if Beck looks to him in the red zone.

Player Props to Watch

Konata Mumpfield is priced at -180 for a 15-yard catch and is the Rams' top healthy receiver for now. Tutu Atwell is -175 for a 15-yard catch, but check his status before betting. Kyren Williams's anytime touchdown price is -135, but reports indicate he is sitting out this game, so avoid that line unless the final injury report says otherwise.

Rams vs Cardinals Prediction

Los Angeles is the clear side here, and the market is right to price the Rams as heavy road favorites. Expect Stafford and the Rams' run game to control the pace against a rookie quarterback, with the total staying under 38.5 as both offenses struggle to sustain drives.
