Los Angeles Rams vs Arizona Cardinals Prediction
The Rams have won three straight, holding Washington to 13 points and the Chargers to nine in their last two outings. Arizona managed only three points against Seattle, though the Cardinals did beat Los Angeles earlier this season. With Nacua and Adams sidelined, Stafford will need more help from the running game. Williams and Corum have combined for 1,040 rushing yards this season, giving Los Angeles another way to move the ball.
Final Score Prediction: Los Angeles 24-13.
