LA Rams vs New England Patriots Prediction
The Los Angeles Rams are the better team and should bounce back, but they're on a short week and have to travel clear across the country. The Rams are also 1-3 SU on the road this season. The Rams have an offensive line issue, and the Patriots have played much better ball under Maye. The Patriots beat the Jets and Bears recently, and their only loss in their last three games was a three-point game against the Titans. The Patriots are playing improved ball and are worth a look as a home dog. I'll take a shot with the points.
