Rams VS. Saints Predictions
There hasn’t been a lot of activity as far as the point spread line movement. Los Angeles opened as the 4-point favorite. This is where the lines currently stand.
New Orleans’ most recent game against New York saw them look on the defensive side of the ball. I see them as the best bet to cover the spread for this week, with the line at +4.
