Featured Game | Green Bay Packers vs. Los Angeles Rams
Why the Packers can cover
Green Bay has a powerful 1-2 punch in the backfield. The Packers, behind Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, rank 12th in rushing yards per game (125.4) and have more than 150 rushing yards in five games this year. Jones is explosive with the ball in his hands and has speed and quickness, flying through the hole. The UTEP product also has a pair of soft hands coming out of the backfield. In fact, the 28-year-old is tied for 13th in rushing (164), 11th in rushing yards (847) and 10th in yards per carry (5.2). He also had 48 receptions for 328 yards and four receiving scores.
Dillon is the backfield power runner who punishes defenders and can be tough to take down due to his strength and size (6-foot, 247 pounds). The Boston College product recorded 143 carries for 624 yards and three scores. See which team to choose here.
Why the Rams can cover
Los Angeles has an exceptional duo at linebacker in the middle of defense. Bobby Wagner is one of the unit’s leaders due to his remarkable IQ and instincts. Wagner runs from sideline to sideline and has his nose for the ball. The eight-time Pro Bowl selection leads the team in total tackles (111) while tied for first in sacks (five). He also recorded seven tackles for loss. In his last outing, he finished with 14 total saves.
Ernest Jones has taken a big step forward this season. Jones is a physical tackler and has a strong understanding of leverage and chase angles. The South Carolina product ranks second on the team in total tackles (93). The 23-year-old has racked up double-digit saves in two of his last five games. See which team to choose here.
