Cardinals vs Rams Prediction
Thick line for a road team, and we’ve seen the Rams find themselves in shaky spots at times this season. However, the Rams are slowly getting healthier and starting to flex their muscles. The Rams have won three straight games, and the defense is getting stronger by the week. The Rams are fifth in both total defense and passing defense, and they’re eighth in scoring defense. We know what the Rams offense is capable of week to week.
The Cardinals don’t play much defense, and they’re throwing out Carson Beck at quarterback. This defensive front isn’t what you want to see in your welcome to the NFL moment. Also, those who followed his college career know Beck is good for a turnover or two. This should be a comfortable win for the Rams. I’ll lay the points, as I have little confidence in Beck.
