Preview:
The bookies haven’t held back setting a whopping 52-point total for this NFC Championship rematch.
The Rams looked a little underdone last week on the road in Carolina, but they still squeaked out a 30-27 victory over the Panthers thanks to a pair of touchdowns from Malcom Brown.
New Orleans also cut it fine at home to the Texans, requiring a last-minute Drew Brees drive to set up the game-winning field goal from Will Lutz.
The Saints will now be looking for revenge on the Rams for their overtime loss in last season’s NFC Championship Game. On paper, the Saints didn’t do a whole lot wrong, but they’ll certainly be hoping for a bigger effort on the ground after running for just 48-yards on the Rams’ defence.
Neither coach will read too much into their previous playoff meeting, but instead, both will be looking for weaknesses in their opponents’ defence – especially since each looked susceptible to the pass last week.
Everything points to a high-scoring game in this one, but the Total does seem a little high. The Total has gone Under in seven of the Saints’ last 10-games dating back to last season, while the Total has also gone Under in four of the Rams’ last five Week 2 games.
New Orleans may be without Ted Ginn Jr this week who is struggling through illness. The veteran isn’t a huge loss, but he’s typically been the kind of player who steps up to make a key catch or two in the dying stages for the Saints.
On the other side, Rams defensive end Eric Weddle looks likely to play this week, giving Los Angeles’ pass rush a big boost. With all that in mind, back the Unders.
Odds:
Tip: Los Angeles Rams at $1.77
