Cardinals vs Rams Prediction and NFL Picks Against the Spread
The main difference between the two matchups between these teams this season was the Cardinals’ success running the football. When they took a run-heavy approach and had success, they won. When Kyler Murray finished as the team’s leading rusher, they lost. Tonight, James Conner is listed as questionable. He looks to be a true game-time decision, and whether or not he plays could greatly impact Arizona’s rushing success.
As for the Rams, they are in desperation mode. They pushed all of their chips to the middle of the table this season in hopes of winning a Super Bowl. Matthew Stafford is playing better than many are giving him credit for, though he continues to make a couple of bad decisions every game. Lately, teams have capitalized on these mistakes. In playoff games, you cannot give teams the opportunity to make these plays.
I expect him to look sharper, and the Rams should try to run the ball early and often. This will help out their offensive line, which is struggling in pass protection. If they have success on the ground and can methodically lead early scoring drives, they should win this game. While it will be a close, competitive game, I am predicting the Rams do exactly that. I would prefer to tease this line to get under a field goal, but I’ll still take the Rams covering the spread.
