New Orleans Saints vs Los Angeles Rams prediction

I considered the New Orleans Saints and the points, but I’m not sure this team is all that good. The Saints continue to struggle stopping the run, the offense stalls a lot and their recent wins came against the Giants, Panthers, and Bears. The Saints have folded whenever playing a decent team, and they’re 4-9-1 ATS on the season. The Los Angeles Rams are playing their best ball over the last month, the offense has caught fire with the return of Kupp, and they’re 8-5-1 ATS on the season. Give me the Rams by a touchdown.
