We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant O/U ATS statistics and common sense:

As note that the Rams have seen the total go UNDER the number in three of their last five as a road dog of three points or less and in ten of their last 15 against clubs with winning records, while Seattle has seen the total go UNDER the number in five of eight as a favorite already this year and in all four against divisional opponents.

The bottom line: This is a pivotal game. LA is 9-4 and the Hawks are 8-5. Seattle already beat the Rams 16-10 in LA earlier in the year and we think another tight, lower-scoring defensive battle is in the cards in the rematch in the chilly Northwest. The conditions and the numbers all point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
