Philadelphia Eagles (-3) over LOS ANGELES RAMS

The Eagles have an added advantage with three extra days of rest for this matchup featuring NFC playoff contenders.

Couple that with an offense that is clicking and a defense leading the league in yards allowed per game, and there’s reason to believe the Eagles can win by at least a field goal on the road. 

The Rams, as their 5-5 record indicates, can be inconsistent, having lost to a reeling Dolphins team at home on “Monday Night Football” just two weeks ago.

Philadelphia is also equipped to slow down the Rams’ passing attack featuring the dynamic Cooper Kupp-Puka Nacua tag team, as it allows the second-fewest passing yards per game.

Los Angeles’ defense is middle of the pack — which could present problems while trying to stop Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Baltimore Ravens (-3) over LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

We’re going to fade both Los Angeles home teams in the prime-time games.

The Ravens seemed pretty ticked off after losing to the Steelers despite not allowing a touchdown and had quite a few fluky things go against them.

The Chargers avoided blowing a 21-point third-quarter lead against the Bengals and needed some missed field goals by Cincinnati to do so.

Though Justin Herbert is playing well, the Chargers don’t have the weapons to keep up with the Ravens’ offense. 


Betting on the NFL?


Last week’s win also showed that the Chargers’ defense built its high rankings based on facing some lesser offenses.

Backing Baltimore here is going with the better offense on an angry team that seemingly needs the game more after letting a few others — Cleveland, Las Vegas, Pittsburgh — slip away.

It’s worth noting that the Chargers are 1-3 against teams with winning records this season. 

Last week: 0-2. Packers (L), Chiefs (L)
Season: 7-15.
