Matthew Stafford, Quarterback, Los Angeles Rams

While nan Rams are apt going to triumph this crippled successful a rout, I don’t emotion laying 2 touchdowns pinch immoderate team, arsenic location is ever a chance for a backdoor screen pinch a dispersed for illustration that. 

The Saints person only covered doubly this season, but I americium going to stake against their discourtesy alternatively pinch a rookie backmost making his first commencement of his profession connected nan road. 

Shough played sparingly successful Week 8 against nan Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but now he has to look an L.A. defense that is 2nd successful nan convention successful EPA/Pass, 3rd successful EPA/Play and ninth successful occurrence rate. 

The Rams are going to unit Shough rather a bit, and nan Saints are already a awesome squad to stake nan UNDER connected (5-3) this season. 

While nan Rams could extremity up hanging a large number connected New Orleans to push this full over, I deliberation there’s a existent chance nan Saints struggle to people much than 10-14 points connected Sunday. That should springiness UNDER bettors immoderate cushion, and nan Rams whitethorn telephone disconnected nan dogs precocious pinch nan 49ers and Seahawks (two important section opponents) waiting successful nan coming weeks.
