In order for the Rams to win the NFC West, they might very well need to go 4-0 in their final four games. That starts with beating the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday afternoon when Los Angeles hosts its division rival at SoFi Stadium.
Despite putting nearly half their roster on the COVID-19 reserve list this week, the Rams are still favored to beat the Seahawks. Seattle has struggled all season long and the Rams are coming off a huge win over the Cardinals on Monday night.
Experts are leaning heavily toward the Rams in this one, with 95% picking them to win outright and 74% taking them to cover the spread at home, according to NFL Pick Watch. Only the Packers (75%) are being picked more often to cover the spread this week as they visit the injury-ravaged Ravens.
The Rams aren’t certain to get any of the players currently on COVID-19 reserve back in time for Sunday’s game, so it’s possible Jalen Ramsey, Odell Beckham Jr., Von Miller, Jordan Fuller and Rob Havenstein will be unable to play. In order for a player to be activated off COVID-19 reserve, he has to test negative twice at least 24 hours apart.
