Los Angeles Rams vs Philadelphia Eagles Divisional Playoff Picks – 1/19/25

Rams vs Eagles Betting Odds

After both teams won during the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs, the Los Angeles Rams will face the Philadelphia Eagles in the Divisional playoffs. Both teams were in control throughout their first-round playoff games but only one of them can get a win in this matchup. Philadelphia is favored by 6.5 points, while the total for this contest has been set at 45.5 points.

Here, we break down Rams vs Eagles before their Divisional playoff game kicks off from Lincoln Financial Field. We will give you our keys to this game, along with our best bet for this contest. After breaking down the performances of both of these teams in the first round, we have identified where the edge lies in this one.

Rams Look to Pull Upset On the Road

In the first round of the postseason, the Los Angeles Rams did an amazing job of overcoming adversity against the Minnesota Vikings. The Rams were the home team for that game, but the game was moved from California to Arizona due to wildfires in the Rams’ home state. That did not matter, as the Rams blew the Vikings out and made life very difficult for Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold.

This week, NFL betting sites have made the Rams underdogs against the Eagles. For the Rams to pull off an upset in this matchup, they will need to win up front, which is no easy task against a physical Eagles offensive line. There is a huge difference between beating up on the Vikings o-line and doing the same to the Eagles o-line, a lesson the Rams could learn the hard way here.

Eagles Enter Divisional Round As Favorites

The Philadelphia Eagles cruised into the Divisional round of the NFL playoffs by beating the Green Bay Packers on Wild Card weekend. Philly forced several turnovers, including one on the opening kickoff, allowing them to win by double-digits at home. Now they will host their opponent here in the Divisional playoffs, as they are just a win away from making it back to the NFC Championship Game.

There is a huge concern for the Eagles going into this game, that being injuries on defense. The Eagles lost Nakobe Dean against the Packers, with Dean being spotted on the sideline on crutches. If Dean is unable to go in this contest that would be a major negative for Philadelphia as they look to clamp down on a second consecutive playoff opponent.

Rams vs Eagles Prediction

Our best bet for Rams vs Eagles in the Divisional playoffs is for the Philadelphia Eagles to win and cover the spread as 6.5-point favorites. Philly’s physicality is so much more imposing than that of Minnesota, which won’t allow the Rams to get into the same kind of rhythm they got in against the Vikings. Expect the Eagles to control the line of scrimmage and to glide into the NFC Championship Game.
