A nice NFC West matchup in week two. Both the Rams and Cardinals lost their week one matchup but showed signs of success. Heading into the season, both of these teams had higher hopes than they posted last year. These two have quarterbacks who can light up the field, so expect some points. Take a look below at the Rams-Cards predictions below.
Rams At Cardinals Preview and Predictions
Arizona looked extremely solid through the first half against a very solid Buffalo team. Once the Bills started to turn it on, the Cardinals were left in the dust. They really moved the ball well, which is a great sign going forward. A healthy Kyler Murray is always a threat on a weekly basis.
.@RamsNFL everyone gets smarter at football when you watch them play. They never EVER make excuses…They are too busy finding solutions and they maximize their roster. Thank You Rams You make me watch every week. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/jyGFlPOc0s

The Rams were a few plays away from defeating the Lions on Sunday Night Football. These two teams have had really solid matchups the last two times they played, and that was the case yet again in Detroit. Look for McVay and Co. to come out with a vengeance and put points up against their NFC West rivals on the road.
Rams at Cardinals Bets
The strengths of both of these teams are their offenses, and Vegas agrees with that. It is not an outrageously high total, but it is on the higher side set at 47.5. Although these teams know eachother well, I expect fireworks in this game. Kyler Murray looked so confident and really did look like his old self. Another player who looked like their old self was Cooper Kupp. Wide receiver Puka Nacua got all of the noise heading into the season but Kupp reminded us who he was. Look for the connection of Stafford to Kupp to be alive as ever and lead the team to points. From there, Arizona will get into chase mode, and the shootout will begin. This is going to be a great NFC West matchup with fireworks left and right.
The Pick: Over 47.5
