First look: Los Angeles Rams at Tampa Bay Buccaneers odds and lines

Looking at Sunday’s Los Angeles Rams at Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week 9 NFL odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

Two of the most disappointing teams in the NFC will square off on Sunday afternoon when the Los Angeles Rams (3-4) visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-5). Kickoff will be at 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX) from Raymond James Stadium. Below, we look at Rams vs. Buccaneers odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our NFL picks and predictions.

The Rams came back from their Week 7 bye and were blown out by the San Francisco 49ers Sunday, 31-14. It dropped their record below .500 for the 2nd time in Sean McVay’s career, sinking the Rams to 3rd place in the NFC West. It has been a difficult season for Los Angeles, fielding one of the worst offenses in the league. Complicating matters worse, star WR Cooper Kupp left the Week 8 game with an ankle injury.

The Buccaneers have been equally underwhelming, losing 3 straight games coming into this home contest against the Rams. They’re also third in their division and have the worst rushing offense in the NFL, averaging just 62 yards per game on the ground. In their last game, the Buccaneers lost to the Ravens, 27-22.

First look: Los Angeles Rams at Tampa Bay Buccaneers odds and lines

Looking at Sunday’s Los Angeles Rams at Tampa Bay Buccaneers playoff NFL odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers both cruised in the wild-card round with lopsided victories over the Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles, punching their tickets to the divisional round. Now, they’ll square off for the second time this season, a rematch of their Week 3 meeting and their third showdown in the last two seasons. Kickoff in this marquee playoff matchup will be on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET from Raymond James Stadium. Below, we look at the Rams vs. Buccaneers odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.

After collapsing in Week 18 by blowing a 17-point lead in their 27-24 overtime loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Rams bounced back in a big way against the Cardinals.

They steamrolled their division rival, winning 34-11 at home Monday night in what was one of the best defensive performances in the first half you’ll ever see in a playoff game.

The Cardinals gained 40 yards and had three first downs in the first 30 minutes, struggling to form any sort of offensive production.

QB Matthew Stafford played mistake-free football with 202 yards and 2 touchdown passes on only 17 attempts, keeping the offense in a rhythm and allowing RB Cam Akers and RB Sony Michel to carry the load on the ground.

The Buccaneers won almost as easily in the wild-card round, crushing the Philadelphia Eagles, 31-15. Despite not having RB Leonard Fournette or WR Chris Godwin, the Bucs still gained 349 yards on offense, including 106 yards on the ground.

Most importantly, they shut down the Eagles’ top-ranked rushing offense, allowing just 95 yards on the ground – 34 of which came on one run by Philadelphia RB Boston Scott.

QB Tom Brady completed 29 of 37 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns, with WR Mike Evans catching nine of those completions for 117 yards and a touchdown.

All-time, the Rams hold a comfortable series lead, going 18-9 against the Buccaneers dating back to 1977. They’ve won seven of the last eight meetings, as well.

When it comes to the playoffs, the Rams and Buccaneers have met twice. The Rams won both games, which were each low-scoring affairs: 9-0 in the 1979 playoffs and 11-6 in the 1999 playoffs. Each time the Rams faced the Bucs in the postseason, they went on to reach the Super Bowl.
