The Arizona Cardinals have been underdogs to start every week this season. They open the week in Week 17 in a familiar spot. They are underdogs on the road in their season finale against the Los Angeles Rams.
According to BetMGM, the Rams are favored by 7.5 points.
Betting the moneyline, the Rams are heavy favorites to win outright at -358, meaning you would have to wager nearly $36 to win $10. The Cardinals are +280. If you bet on them to win outright and they do, a $10 bet will win $28 in profit.
The Cardinals have been very good against the spread this season, going 9-5-1, the exact opposite of their 5-9-1 win/loss record. The Rams, 8-7 in the standings, are 10-5 against the spread.
The over/under is set at 48.5 points. The Cardinals have hit the over in eight of their 15 games. Games involving the Rams have only gone over the point total in six of 15.
The overall line might still move, as the status of Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray’s status for the game is unknown, as he is day-to-day with a hamstring pull.
