Last Game
The Rams had a statement NFC West win, beating the NFL odds and prevailing over the rival the Seattle Seahawks 23-17 in an NFL Week 10 matchup. The defense held Seattle’s Russell Wilson in check, holding him without a touchdown and forcing two interceptions.
Quarterback Jared Goff moved the ball efficiently, completing 27-of-37 passes for 302 yards. His success through the air set up the running game to succeed in the red zone, thrice scoring a rushing touchdown from within 10 yards. Going against a porous Seattle secondary, the lack of big plays from the passing game is an area of concern for Los Angeles moving forward.
Stats Pack
Wide receiver Josh Reynolds is one to keep an eye on for the Rams. In his last three games, Reynolds is averaging nine targets, which has resulted in 16 receptions. His most recent performance was his best yet, catching eight for 94 yards.
The running back room seems to be more crowded than with rookie Cam Akers, Darrell Henderson, and Malcolm Brown. Brown scored twice last week, albeit on only six carries. Best to stay away from this running room for now when doing your online NFL betting.

The Buccaneers took care of the Carolina Panthers, 46-23. The game was tied at 17 going into halftime.
The highlight was running back Ronald Jones’ 98-yard touchdown run, leading him to a career day of 192 rushing yards. Tom Brady finished strong with 341 yards and three touchdowns, along with one on the ground.
Stats Pack
Brady is spreading the ball out nicely to his weapons, throwing for 2,739 yards and 23 touchdowns. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin are the top receivers, with the recently signed Antonio Brown in the fold as well.
Evans has eight touchdowns. Godwin is averaging 69 yards per game, and Brown is coming off a seven-reception game in just his second appearance.

Betting on the Game
Point Spread
Tampa Bay seems to have put the recent blowout loss to the New Orleans Saints behind it, bouncing back convincingly against Carolina. The Rams have been a low-end 6-3 team this year and shouldn’t be able to keep up with this team.
Moneyline
The expectation when making your NFL picks would be on Tampa Bay winning this game at home. With a more complete roster, the Buccaneers are the better NFC team. Until the Rams can figure out their passing game, it’s best to stay away from this team.
Over/Under
The Buccaneers’ offense is explosive with the big-name talent throughout. They average 29.6 points per game and should have opportunities to continue scoring against a middling Los Angeles defense. The Rams offense should be able to score as well. The Buccaneer’s defense has been stingy but they’re letting up an average of 28 points per game in their last three.
