Indianapolis Colts vs. Los Angeles Rams Pick

Spread Pick for Colts vs. Rams

  • Los Angeles Rams -3.5 (5 units)

Indianapolis and Los Angeles are both playing well to start the season, but with Los Angeles playing at home and the experience of quarterback Matthew Stafford, the advantage goes to the Rams. Los Angeles is holding opponents to just 268.3 yards of offense per game, has 12 quarterback sacks, and allows 103.0 yards per game on the ground, which will contain the strong running attack of Indianapolis, led by Jonathan Taylor. On offense, the Rams are scoring an average of 24.3 points per game and are fifth in total offense at 363.7 yards per game. Despite losing to Philadelphia last week, Los Angeles was in control for much of the game, leading by as many as 19 points in the third quarter. The Colts will try to establish a running game with Taylor, but look for the Rams to quash that and force Daniel Jones to beat them through the air, which will not happen.

Over/Under Pick for Colts vs. Rams

  • Over 50.0 (4 units)

The total has been over in each of Indy’s last two games and each of LA’s last two games. The Colts are third in scoring, and LA is 11th. The offenses will score enough, while the defenses will create a few turnovers and make shorter fields for their respective offenses, which will make for more scoring opportunities. Daniel Jones has found a way as a passer and runner to lift the Colts early on. However, injuries are starting to catch up in the secondary for the Colts and Stafford should take advantage of Kenny Moore II being out.
