Washington Commanders vs Los Angeles Rams prediction
I considered the Washington Commanders and the points because they’ve had an extra week to prepare. However, we’ve seen the Commander’s offense struggle mightily these last few weeks, and another blowout loss would surprise nobody in their current form. The Los Angeles Rams have improved drastically offensively since the return of Kupp and that includes a near upset over the Ravens on the road last week. Just two teams heading in different directions. Give me the Rams in a comfortable home win.
