Broncos vs Rams Preview
When the NFL scheduled this game they probably thought it was going to be one of the most intriguing matchups of the season. How could it not be? the defending Super Bowl champion Rams hosting Russell Wilson and a talented Broncos team, but woof.
These two teams are at the top of the list for teams that have been the biggest disappointments this season as they both enter this game at 4-10. The problems for both of these teams start on the offensive side of the ball.
The Broncos have scored just 15.6 points per game this season, while the Rams have only been slightly better at 16.4. The good news for the Broncos is that the offense has looked better over the last two games averaging 26 points per game.
The Broncos also get Russell Wilson back this week and have a chance to win two games in a row for the first time since week three. Wilson missed last week’s win over the Cardinals, but he had one of his best outings of the season two weeks ago in a competitive loss to the Cheifs.
In that game, Wilson went 23 of 36 passing for 247 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. Jerry Jeudy has also played well in the last two games with 15 receptions for 149 yards and three touchdowns.
With the injury to Matthew Stafford, the Rams have turned to Baker Mayfield at quarterback over the last two games. Mayfield has passed for 341 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.
The biggest absence for the Rams has been the injury to Cooper Kupp, who is still the teams leading receiver by over 300 yards despite not playing the last five games. With Kupp out the top targets that Mayfield has been throwing to are Van Jefferson, Tyler Higbee, Ben Skowronek, and Tutu Atwell.
With the Rams’ offense being so depleted by injuries the key matchup in this game will be if they can score against a Broncos defense that has been pretty good this season holding teams to just 18.1 points per game.
The oddsmakers expect this to be a close game as the Broncos are just favored by -2.5. They also expect a low-scoring game as the total is just 36.5.
