Game Prediction!
The Pick: LA Rams ML +125
The San Francisco 49ers are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home on a short week, but they haven't looked great this season and aren't a team I'm excited to back in the favorite role.

The Rams have won the last two games against the 49ers. The Rams are 6-4 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog, and 4 of those covers were outright wins. You can argue the Rams are playing the better ball right now. Take the points if you feel more comfortable, but i truly think the Rams will win outright.
