A non-conference matchup with two teams going in opposite directions. The Los Angeles Rams visit the under-performing New York Jets in Week 16. The Rams are vying for the NFC West division title. Meanwhile, the Jets have huge question marks about the future. Below are my Rams at Jets Preview and Predictions.
There was plenty of skipticism about the Los Angeles Rams coming into this season, especially in the NFC West division. Here they are in Week 16 fighting the division title. On the injury report, the Rams come into this game healthy. The only two players listed who did not practice on Friday were offensive tackle Rob Havenstein and Alaric Jackson. But all indications are they are a go in this game.
Meanwhile, for the New York Jets, several questionable tags includiing Alijah Vera-Tucker, Quinnen Williams, and Braelon Allen. The Jets struggles continue on defense since the firing of Robert Saleh.
Rams at Jets Preview and Predictions
Best Bets
Thus far this season, the Rams on the road are 4-3 SU and 4-3 ATS. Further, the Rams come into this game winning three games in row and four of the last five overall. The Rams have also won four road games in a row and look to continue their winning ways on Sunday. The Jets at home this season are 2-4 SU and 2-4 ATS.
Over the last five weeks, the Jets have allowed their oppoents to score at least 25+ points. I believe the Rams offense will find success in this game especially after not scoring any touchdowns in their Week 15 matchup against the 49ers. The Rams are also coming off a mini-bye week as they played on Thursday night. I like the Rams to continue their momentum and winning ways.
Best Bet: Rams -3 and Team Total Over 23.5
Player Prop Best Bet
Matthew Stafford Over 244.5 Passing Yards
As I mentioned above, the Jets defense has been struggling and giving up the points to their opponents. I believe Stafford can come into this game and have a field day throwing the football to Nacua and Kupp. Stafford’s numbers do take a dip on the road this season but I do believe this is good opportunity for him to bounce back after last week. The Jets defense has allowed an opposing quarterback to go over this projection in four out of the last five weeks.
