The Eagles enter as 3-point road favorites, riding a six-game winning streak during which they've dominated opponents by an average margin of two scores. However, they'll be without DeVonta Smith (hamstring), who has 41 receptions for 516 yards and four touchdowns this season.
Philadelphia's ground game remains potent with Saquon Barkley (1,137 yards) leading the NFL in rushing. Barkley is coming off a 146-yard, two-touchdown performance against Washington.
The Rams have won four of their last five games, with Matthew Stafford playing exceptional football. During this stretch, Stafford has thrown 10 touchdowns against three interceptions while averaging nearly 300 yards per game.
The return of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua has reinvigorated LA's offense, which has scored 26+ points in three of their last four games. Running back Kyren Williams ranks third in carries (191) and ninth in rushing yards (750), adding balance to their attack.
Key Factors:
- Eagles missing DeVonta Smith (hamstring)
- Rams have extra rest after playing Thursday
- LA is 3-2 straight up and ATS at home
- Rams' defense allowing just 20 points per game since Week 6
- Philadelphia leads league in rushing
Prediction: Rams 27, Eagles 24 Best Bet: Rams +3 (-115)
The Rams' balanced offense and extra rest give them an edge in what should be a closely contested prime-time battle. LA's improved defense and home-field advantage make them an attractive underdog against an Eagles team missing a key offensive weapon.
