The Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams close out Week 15 of the NFL season on Monday Night Football in a matchup of disappointing NFC teams. Read on for our Rams-Packers NFL picks.

Los Angeles (4-9) snapped a six-game losing streak with a dramatic comeback victory from down 13 points against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14. However, the Rams are one loss away from tying the 1999 Broncos for the most defeats a defending Super Bowl champion has suffered.

Green Bay (5-8) is the lowest-scoring team in the NFC North (263 points), and its playoff hopes are hanging by a thread. The Packers are currently +700 to make the playoffs at most sportsbooks.

Here is our best Rams-Packers NFL pick for Week 15 (odds via DraftKings Sportsbook; Pick confidence is based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Rams vs. Packers Pick

Rams +7 ⭐⭐⭐

The betting public has come out in droves to support the Packers, yet the line has moved in the Rams’ favor. That suggests the most respected money is on Los Angeles, and we're happy to back the underdogs at +7 or higher.

Green Bay has been a sieve defensively, allowing 400-plus yards in four straight games. Baker Mayfield has now benefitted from an extra week with his new team while learning Sean McVay’s playbook. He's looking to build off a fourth quarter in Week 14 when he went 15-for-20 passing for 141 yards. 

Aaron Rodgers has won eight consecutive Monday Night Football starts, the fifth-longest streak from a quarterback. While he may very well win his ninth straight, seven points are too much to lay on a team that's taken just two of its last nine games.

Rams vs. Packers Odds

DraftKings (-105)

DraftKings FanDuel BetMGM Caesars PointsBet
Rams +7 (-105) Rams +7 (-112) Rams +7 (-110) Rams +7 (-105) Rams +7 (-105)

Rams backers get their choice of DraftKings, Caesars, and PointsBet to take advantage of the optimal juice (-105). However, with most sportsbooks forcing bettors to pay up slightly to back Green Bay, and with the betting splits so much in the Packers' favor, there's a good chance the Rams get back to +7.5 before kickoff.

Mike started in the sports writing industry in July 2019, and gained a lot of followers in his first year after finishing with the No. 2 overall record in an annual NFL betting competition, which made picks against the spread, and from an Over/Under and moneyline perspective. Mike is an avid fan of the NFL, MLB, tennis, and all college sports. In his opinion, March Madness is the best sporting event there is, and he's especially euphoric starting with conference tournament time in college basketball. Mike's a big advocate of "fading the public" and making plays that are contrarian, constantly citing that "there are reasons why they have those big shiny buildings in Las Vegas." When making wagers, Mike always scours the best odds at all of the major sports betting sites, where he mostly sifts through DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and bet365. He's tried several others and is of the firm belief that bettors should not just stick to one sportsbook, as there is always likely better value to be had with the same wager. In addition, while Mike received his undergraduate degree from Villanova University, he has no issue betting against the Wildcats when it comes to college basketball wagering, and suggests other bettors should always put their “head” before their “hearts.”
