Featured Game | Green Bay Packers vs. Los Angeles Rams
Why the Rams can cover
The Rams have a path to on-court success against the Packers. Cam Akers has scored three touchdowns in his last two games and Green Bay’s defense is porous. The Packers are No. 30 in rushing yards allowed (154.8 per game) and yards per rush allowed (5.0). Green Bay is also struggling to rush the passer with just 24 sacks in 2022, and the Rams have a confident quarterback in Baker Mayfield.
The former No. 1 overall pick was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week in Week 14 after engineering a comeback win against the Raiders. Mayfield’s 98-yard touchdown was the longest free kick in the final two minutes of an NFL game in four decades, and the Rams can work the math in their favor with the second-best fourth efficiency in the league at 76.5%.

Why the Packers can cover
Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is a four-time NFL MVP and 10-time Pro Bowler. Rodgers ranks in the top 10 in passing touchdowns (22), interceptions (nine) and sack rate (5.37%) this season, and has 15 touchdowns and a 109.6 passer rating in his career against the Rams.
In the backfield, the Packers have two players with over 600 rushing yards. Aaron Jones is No. 7 in the NFL with 5.2 yards per carry this season and has 1,075 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns. AJ Dillon used 18 carries to generate 93 yards and a touchdown last week and is a punishing runner. On the outside, rookie receiver Christian Watson has 331 yards and seven touchdowns over the past four games and ranks in the top 10 in touchdown receptions and yards per strike (16.0) for the season.
