If this game were a set of knockers, the Cardinals would be big, brown areolas and the Rams coarse, animal/like hairs.

Janoris Jenkins can't locate the football even if it is literally under him.
This score (total) is a great example of how Vegas uses psychology to set lines. If anyone is interested.
The over / under was a ridiculously high 40 for this game. Why? People like to bet on games they can watch. With this the only game of the day, Vegas understands this and they also understand people like scoring in games.
Most knowledgeable fans wouldn't have predicted much scoring in this game but Vegas knows more can't resist their own excitement. People bet scoring because they want scoring (aka people are generally dumb).
This proven by little fluctuation in a line set much higher than it should have been. 35 should have been tops for this game. Larger bets surely came in on the under, but the smaller bettors out numbered them, bet the over, and kept the number artificially high (and Vegas' ledger balanced).
Bettors should really study the psychology of sports wagering and the subsequent mindset of the line maker.

Plenty of time left for 2 field goals

Yup, Rams seem more enamored with building a collection of draft board favorites over actualy building a winning team. They drafted a pass rushing line in the NFCW, makes zero sense.
What is it about Missouri which causes GM's to just stockpile asset after asset and not give a thought to "will this team actually be able to win"? Pioli's Chiefs and now the Rams...all goddy with talent.

If they go 79 they'll probably kick a damn field goal, and Phil "dumber than a half-aborted fetus" Simms will endorse it.

And the Falcons are in the lead of the NFC South at 5-8. We are through the looking glass.
