🆚 Who will win Rams vs. Jaguars?

Sean McVay’s teams are 2-0 straight up and against the spread in International Series games, winning by a combined score of 57-10 and covering the spread by an average of 16 points per outing. I trust the Rams more to win what should be a low-scoring affair.

Score prediction: Rams 21-Jaguars 20

⬇️ Under 44.5 (-104) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Matthew Stafford is 11-0 against teams that field a bottom-five pass defense like the Jaguars since being traded to the Rams in 2021. But Jacksonville's unit is also an opportunistic defense that leads the league with 14 takeaways and allows 20 points per game, which is on pace for the club's fewes since 2018.

Rams’ offensive concerns without Nakua

Nacua has officially been ruled out for this game due to an ankle injury suffered last week.

The impact of Nacua’s absence cannot be understated, as he leads the team in receptions (54) and receiving yards (616). His 57 touches are also more than double that of No. 2 wide receiver Davante Adams (26).

Los Angeles is 12-5 with a healthy Nacua over the last two seasons, while its quarterbacks have totaled a 30:7 passing touchdown-to-interception ratio. The team's signal-callers have also taken sacks just 4% of the time while averaging a plus-4.9 Offensive EPA per game. 

However, the Rams are 2-4 without Nakua, and their quarterbacks are posting a 4:4 passing touchdown-to-interception ratio. They've also taken sacks 9% of the time while averaging a minus- 0.8 offensive EPA per outing.

Adams and Stafford need to work on their chemistry if he becomes the primary target by default, as the quarterback has been off target on 30% of the passes thrown the receiver's way this season. We actually highlight a couple other Rams who might take advantage of the extra targets in our Rams vs. Jaguars player props and Rams. vs. Jaguars anytime touchdown scorer predictions.

Neither team holds great momentum heading into this game. The Jaguars are coming off season lows in points, yards, and rushing yards, while the Rams put up lows in yards, passing yards, and first downs during last week’s win.

Caesars is posting the lowest juice among the best sports betting sites that are offering a total of 44.5, as its -104 odds come with a 50.98% implied probability. If the Under does cash, a $10 winning wager would net $9.62 in profit.
