The Packers are taking on the Los Angeles Rams in a matchup of two of the best NFC teams in the league, but both of them are struggling at the moment with injuries and execution. Green Bay is coming off a heartbreaking loss to division rival Minnesota, while the Rams lost to the 49ers. Let’s take a look at some of the best NFL betting props within this matchup.

Green Bay Packers: A.J. Dillon
The Prop: A.J. Dillon Receptions vs. Los Angeles Rams
The Odds: Over 3.5 (-110)/Under 3.5 (-120)
Dillon was more of a workhorse back in college with very little involvement in the passing game, and I think that there are still some people that believe that Dillon is strictly a bruiser.
As you can see in the tweet linked below, Dillon is a talented pass catcher, and he is clearly trusted by Aaron Rodgers, a quarterback that I would suggest relies heavily on relationships.
AJ Dillon has been awesome as a pass-catcher this season.

Dillon earned six targets last week, and those catches weren’t like those two-minute drill dump-offs while trailing that we cannot count on again. Dillon was heavily featured in the passing game, and I expect that to be the case again, especially against an offense that should be able to score some points.
Green Bay Packers: Randall Cobb
The Prop: Randall Cobb Receptions vs. Los Angeles Rams
The Odds: Over 3.5 (+203)/Under 3.5 (-133)
Cobb has been working his way into the rotation over the course of the season and his 71% of snaps last week is incredibly encouraging. I think that the Packers and Rodgers specifically will want to get him more involved in the offense in a big game, and I think that they can do that if they want to.
Cobb has been generally efficient all season when targeted, so I feel good about this number at +103. I think that Cobb sees six targets and catches at least four in this matchup.
