Gridiron Throne: Los Angeles Rams and NFC West betting lines

Los Angeles Rams - Under 10.5

The Los Angeles Rams were a Super Bowl team last year. They lost to the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl 13-3, and it was a disappointing end to their season. For the Rams, after huge wins, controversial decisions, and a significant push by the running game at the end of the season, a loss was a lot to handle. 

The Los Angeles Rams went 13-3 last year. Include the running at the end of the year and the defensive additions of Ndamukong Suh, Marcus Peters, and Aquib Talib, and it was an all-star team. However, with Suh gone, Talib often injured, and a questionable knee injury to running back Todd Gurley the Rams have a lot to look at.

When the running side of the ball was successful at the end of the year, it was a lot of C.J Anderson during the Todd Gurley injury. The Los Angeles Rams were dealing with a lot from Gurley and his knee but found a gem that was being left over for other reasons in Anderson. He came in and provided great games and proved himself to still be a successful back throughout the end of the regular season and in the playoffs. Not having him and Gurley dealing with an injury is going to be a factor for the Rams this season.

Arizona Cardinals - Under 5 

What is there not left to say about the Arizona Cardinals? They had a horrific season last year, they drafted another quarterback in the first round, and still have a bad team overall. Adding a new offensive coach and Kyler Murray should help the cause of the Cardinals but not by much. 

The Arizona Cardinals will still be a bad team this season. The only saving grace that they could hope for is if Kyler Murray goes insane and tears up the league. It is not all doom and gloom, but it would be a shock if the Cardinals won five or more games this season.
