Rams vs. Eagles Early Picks, Predictions & Odds for Divisional Round
The Los Angeles Rams march into Lincoln Financial Field to take on the Philadelphia Eagles after each team won comfortably on Wild Card Weekend, as the NFL playoffs heat up with the divisional round on tap.
Our Rams vs. Eagles early picks feature two teams that dominated their competition to reach this stage of the NFL postseason, though only one serves as a true Super Bowl odds contender.
Philadelphia picked off Jordan Love three times en route to a 12-point victory against the Green Bay Packers, and Los Angeles annihilated Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night.
Now, these teams square off on Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m. ET (NBC) with a trip to the NFC Championship Game on the line.
Can the Rams pull off another upset as 6-point underdogs, or will the Eagles put an end to their run?

What do you do when you're tasked with writing a pick for a game involving your bet to be the NFC representative in the Super Bowl? Well, naturally, you forget the spread and take that team on the moneyline.
That's exactly what I'm doing with my Rams vs. Eagles early picks. I'm not worried about Los Angeles covering as a 6-point underdog. I'm looking at it to win outright in a game that I believe will be priced much closer as the week progresses.
Not only do I simply like the Rams to win this game, but I also think we're getting a great price on them to do so by attacking the market early in the week.
In fact, this is already moving, as L.A. opened as a +230 underdog at Pinnacle - which features one of the most respected trading teams in the sports betting industry - and was bet to +221 overnight.
The Eagles didn't impress me in their Wild Card Weekend win over the Packers, and, in the end, I just don't think Jalen Hurts is that good.
Matthew Stafford may be nearing the tail end of his career, but he's still the superior quarterback in this matchup, which is the most important factor in nearly all NFL games.
These teams stack up pretty evenly based on talent, coaching, and experience. So, naturally, I'm thrilled we're getting better than 2-1 on one of them to win.

The Eagles closed as nearly identically priced favorites at our best sports betting sites for their Wild Card Weekend game against the Packers, with the best price being -258.

We could see these odds move in the Rams' favor throughout the week, as it already has started to do so at Pinnacle.
Spread
- Eagles best odds: -5.5 (-112 via FanDuel)
- Rams best odds: +6 (-108 via DraftKings)
FanDuel is the only one of our best sports betting apps offering this spread at anything other than 6 points. Therefore, if you're an Eagles backer, that's where you want to make your bet early in the week.
DraftKings is charging slightly less juice to take the underdogs to cover.
For its part, Pinnacle already has the spread for this game down to 5 points, and early movement on the price is in the Rams' favor.
Over/Under
- Over best odds: 43.5 (-108 via DraftKings)
- Under best odds: 43.5 (-110 via bet365)
There are two low totals set for the divisional round and two big ones. This game falls under the former.
It's already dropped a point at some of our best sportsbooks and could continue to move in that direction with some nasty weather expected in Philadelphia on Sunday.
Additionally, both these teams put on impressive defensive efforts during Wild Card Weekend.
