The Los Angeles Rams (5-10) and Los Angeles Chargers (9-6) will square off Sunday in Week 17 in their 1st regular-season meeting since each moved to L.A. Kickoff has been moved from 8:20 p.m. ET to 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS) at SoFi Stadium. Below, we look at Rams vs. Chargers odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our NFL picks and predictions.
The Rams came out of nowhere and erupted for 51 points in Week 16 against the Denver Broncos, winning at home 51-14. Their highest-scoring output of the season nearly matched their 52 total points from the previous 3 games. Los Angeles was a 3-point underdog in that game, so the spread was easily covered by the QB Baker Mayfield-led Rams. The Rams matched their season-high in points by scoring 31 in the 1st half alone against Denver.
The Chargers clinched a playoff berth with a dominant 20-3 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday night, easily covering the spread as 3.5-point favorites. The Kansas City Chiefs already won the AFC West, so the Chargers can’t catch them for the division title, but Los Angeles is back in the postseason for the 1st time since 2018.
