- - After crushing the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night to cap off wild-card weekend, the Los Angeles Rams will now head across the country to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the second round of the playoffs. Both teams won easily this week, but the oddsmakers are favoring the Buccaneers in this upcoming matchup with the Rams. - According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Buccaneers opened as 3.5-point favorites over the Rams. The Rams are +133 on the money line, meaning a $100 wager returns a profit of $133. The over/under has been set at 48.5 points, the second-highest total of the divisional round next weekend. - This is just the third time all season that the Rams are listed as underdogs. In their other two games, they won both, beating the Cardinals in Week 14 and the Buccaneers in Week 3, easily covering the spread in each game. - Needless to say, being underdogs doesn’t scare the Rams in the least bit and if this game were played on a neutral field, it would likely be a pick’em. - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Rams Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Rams Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
