NFL Week 6 picks: Almost all experts are taking Rams to top Panthers

The vast majority of experts are taking the Rams to win on Sunday, but only about half are picking them to cover the spread

No team is favored by more points in Week 6 than the Los Angeles Rams against the Carolina Panthers. The spread sits at -9.5 in favor of the Rams, making them heavy favorites at home against the 1-4 Panthers.

Experts also like the Rams to win this game, snapping their two-game losing streak. According to NFL Pick Watch, 97% of experts are taking Los Angeles to win on Sunday. Only the Buccaneers (98%) have a larger contingent of experts backing them in Week 6.

Not nearly as many pundits are picking the Rams to cover the 9.5-point spread, however. Only 51% are taking the Rams to win by at least 10 points. That’s still a good number considering how big the spread is.

The Rams are just 1-4 against the spread this season, only covering against the Cardinals in Week 3. Otherwise, they’ve lost three games by at least 10 points each and had a narrow win against the Falcons.
