IMHO The Rams have the Odds makers scared, after Sundays game against the Eagles, they have the 49ers favored by ONLY 3 1/2 pts. That's got me scratching my head because the Eagles, who were beat by the 49ers, were favored by 7 over us! I think the odds makers don't know what to expect from the Rams! "I've BEEN WAITING FOR THIS GAME ALL SEASON!! NOOOOO ONE HATES THE 49ERS MORE THAN ME!!

The Rams have everyone scratching their heads. They can obviously put up points in the bucket loads, but then sometimes they don't. They have top pass rush talent but no sacks. A third string QB and two WR the world had written off lighting it up. I would hate to be the guy responsible for setting this line.

Basically, the book would have the Rams +6 on a neutral field, and +9 in San Fran. Whats the good thing about this line again?

Normally IF two teams are considered equal, the Home team is favored by 3 PTS. The Rams are not considered equal to the 49ers based on their won/lose record this season vs the Rams won/lose record this season. So, IMHO the 49ers should have been favored by more than 3 1/2 PTS. the smaller the spread the more the Rams are Truly favored IMO!

Also probably a realization that the Whiners just aren't as good this year, despite trying to bring in more offensive weapons. And still no Aldon Smith for another handful of games.

If the Rams could tighten up fundamentally they'd win a lot more games.

There are a few reasons to believe the Rams can win Monday...a big part of it is hopefully there is an emotional high with the GSOT being in the house.
