And let's take a look at the Rams and Commanders.
Washington coming off a big win against Philadelphia last week.
And hey, all of a sudden, don't look now,
but as soon as the Rams were written off,
they're starting to play better football right now.
In fact, the Rams are four and a half point favorites at Washington,
total of 47 and a half.
Boy, the spot that I always hate is laying points on the road,
Joe, but I think I'm going to get
around to this one in doing it.
I couldn't believe that I saw that the commanders haven't won back
to back games in two years. That's a stat that I can't deny.
Washington coming off their win last
week. I think I'm going to side on the Rams
to continue to get things going here. And I think
finally, it's not necessarily a buy low spot for the Rams, but if.
The prognosticators were so far off.
I mean,
this was the Super Bowl favorite at the beginning of the season.
They're starting to look like that over
the last couple of weeks, I suspect.
And I wonder if today's another one of those days.
I don't know. I don't care for West Coast
teams traveling across the country,
having to play in chillier weather,
early games start, too, at the 1 p.m.
I actually like the Commanders with the four
and a half here to keep this one close.
It would not shock me if they won it outright either.
I know Myles Garrett is returning for this game,
but this offense still is trying
to figure out what they are without Davante Adams.
They are running the football a little bit more.
More Blake Corum means, you know, a little less Matthew Stafford
A little less Kyron Williams as they continue to split
carries between these guys now in a little bit different
of a look. And Washington, look,
Antonio Williams stepped up in that void
without Terry McLaurin. I think this is also
a team that could be in the market if they win this
game and pull a rabbit out of their hat to say, hey,
can we do anything to bolster this running game?
That's a problem for us right now, so I wouldn't
sleep on the commanders. Also, in this division
that
Once again, nobody seems to want to win.
This is another default division, I feel like, in the NFC.
And I think that's why you saw the aggressiveness
by a team like the Chicago Bears a couple weeks ago,
attaining a guy like...
Uh, Simmons, because I think that you're looking
at it right now, if you're the Chicago
bears and say, why not us, you know,
especially then they go out there against Seattle with
a big game on the road in Seattle's building against that defense.
That's a big confidence builder right now for the bears.
It's hard not to look at the Bears and say,
are they really the class potential of the NFC
with the way that offense is running,
even if they can just be, I think mid-level on
defense.
So going back to the Rams, I'm not confident in them this year.
I'm not confident in them on the road
in the early game slot with all that travel.
You're certainly right.
The Rams on paper should win this game.
That's what the line should be.
My confidence in the Rams
have just been shaken this year
that I just can't get there.
