This line was pick 'em on the lookahead, but that was before the Rams lost Cooper Kupp. No receiver, not even the best in the league, is worth that many points, and when Matthew Stafford was announced as on track to return on Sunday, the line moved to Saints -3. I have this line at Saints -1.5 with Stafford under center, and that's before you get to the long list of injured players for the Saints, particularly on defense. New Orleans just hasn't had a good home-field advantage in recent years, and Andy Dalton appears to be on borrowed time as the starting QB. I expect the Rams defense to carry the day and keep this one close.
