On Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams will take on the New Orleans Saints in a matchup between teams that have faced off for the NFC championship not long ago. Neither of these teams is quite in conference championship form this season, but this game still has the potential to be entertaining nonetheless. The Rams are favored by three points going into this matchup, while the total is 47.5. Here, we make our NFL picks for Rams vs Saints from Caesars Superdome.
Rams Look to Stop Saints Winning Streak
The Los Angeles Rams played on Sunday Night Football against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 12. This week, the Rams will play another team on a winning streak as they visit a Saints team that has won two games in a row. The Rams are playing much better football of late than they did early in the season, when they dropped four of their first five games. But their offensive line and secondary will be tested by the surging Saints here, as the Rams are banged-up at the point of attack on offense.
Saints Enter Off Bye Week
After their bye week, the New Orleans Saints come into Week 13 with some renewed hope for their season. The Saints have won two games in a row coming into this contest, with things looking a lot better for New Orleans under interim head coach Darren Rizzi. New Orleans has held the Browns and Falcons to an average of 15.5 points per game over their last two games and they will look to keep the Rams in check in a similar fashion in their third straight home game.
Rams vs Saints Best Bet
The New Orleans Saints still have a lot of work to do to get their season back on track. But we will bank on them moving one step closer to doing so by covering the spread and potentially winning this Rams vs Saints game outright at home. New Orleans should pick on the vulnerable offensive line of the Rams in this game to keep themselves in it and they will make enough plays on offense to finish the job.
