The Los Angeles Rams kick off their 2024 season on the road against the Detroit Lions in Week 1. This Sunday night battle is a rematch between 2 teams that met in the Wild Card round last season, a game the Lions won at home. Kickoff is set for 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC) from Ford Field.
Below, we look at Rams vs. Lions odds from BetMGM Sportsbook before making our expert NFL picks and predictions later in the week.
The Rams had an eventful offseason that included the retirement of DT Aaron Donald and the signing of former Lions guard Jonah Jackson. After going 10-7 and losing in the 1st round of the playoffs last season, the Rams are looking to go even further this year with QB Matthew Stafford leading the way once again.
After beating the Rams in the 1st round, the Lions beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round before losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game. Detroit returns most of its key starters, including QB Jared Goff, WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and DE Aidan Hutchinson, setting the Lions up for a big year in 2024.
