The Rams may be without their two top Wr, Puca and Adams.

I think this Seattle team is very hard to “price”. When they are clicking on offense they can stomp you; when they are not they literally score 3 points in a half. My gut instinct is that I’m not sure I’d have Rams as a favourite in this spot despite how bad Seattle were yday.

Good. The entire media world and refs want the Rams, so let's shut em up with a win.
They tried yesterday and it didn't work.
And even if they DO beat the Rams, the narrative will be that the Rams "gave it away'

And it'll be delish to hear their excuses if it happens.

Feels like a bit of an overreaction by Vegas considering we lost by that much in LA, with 4 picks to boot

I agree the Rams should be favored by that on a neutral field, feels like at Seattle, with Adams out, should be a slight lean to Seattle

I'm good with the Hawks being the underdog. Not that they need it but maybe light a little more of a fire

With Davante Adams likely to be out, stop Puka (which we did last time), stop their RB duo, and stop their TEs.

On offense, Shula is going to have a gameplan to blitz and take away JSN. Their front will target our interior protection like last time. They will also be in dime and nickel often. It is imperative that the run game is functional. Lean on 12 and 13 personnel, dominate TOP, play keep away, and we should come out with the W.

That’s not asking much!

Stop every offensive weapon and beat every defensive weapon.

I’m in.

Confidence level drops if Cross is out and Darnold is under constant pressure.

Point is, not every with Adams out. They can stop Puka which they did WITH Adams playing in that last game. In a potential rain game, it's more about stopping their run game and quick passes to Parkinson near the redzone.

It really comes down to what the offense can do against the Rams defense. The Lions had great success yesterday but just not enough in that second half.
