Falcons vs Rams Prediction

The Falcons continue to compete despite not having anything to play for, but this is a tougher task than the Bucs and Cardinals. The Rams are arguably the best team in the NFL, with the best scoring offense and fourth best scoring defense. The Rams are 11-4 ATS on the season.

The Rams have also had extra time to prepare for this game, and you know they’ll be eager to rebound from an awful loss to the Seahawks. With the Falcons not great on either side of the ball, this has the potential to get ugly. The Rams are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games when favorites of 6 or more points, and they’ve won those games by an average of 19.3 points. Give me the Rams in a road blowout.
