**Odds as of 09/21**
One of the best games of the Week 3 slate sees the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road at the Los Angeles Rams. These two teams come into the game with perfect 2-0 records. The defending Super Bowl champion Buccaneers are coming off a blowout win over Atlanta while the Rams got a win in Indianapolis. Just like everyone else, Vegas and the latest NFL betting odds project this as a great game. The Los Angeles Rams are +1, and the total at 55½ for Sunday’s tilt.
Tom Brady is doing Tom Brady things to start the season. The 44-year-old has thrown for 655 yards and nine touchdowns through his first two games. Rob Gronkowski has been a staple for Brady and leads the team with four touchdown receptions on 12 receptions.
The running game for Tampa Bay has not been great. Leonard Fournette has rushed for a team-high 84 yards while Ronald Jones is off to a slow start, with just 41 yards. Overall, Tampa Bay is 13th with 349.5 yards per game but leads the NFL with 79 points.
For the Rams, things have been sharp early on. They rank right in the middle on offense and defense, according to the numbers, but their 2-0 record tells the real story. Matthew Stafford has come over and led an offense that is averaging 291 passing yards and 30.5.
Darrell Henderson anchors the run game with 29 carries, 123 yards and two touchdowns but he was knocked out of Sunday’s with a rib injury and his status is uncertain. Cooper Kupp has been one of the best receivers in the game with 16 receptions, 271 yards and three touchdowns. The Rams are tied with the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals for the divisional lead.
