Rams more likely to miss the playoffs than make the playoffs, according to betting odds
After opening the season as the betting favorites to win the Super Bowl, the Rams are now underdogs to make the playoffs.
The Los Angeles Rams, once the clear favorites to win the Super Bowl, are now facing an uphill battle in securing a playoff spot according to the latest betting odds. The Rams have shifted from being -500 favorites to make the playoffs to being -130 favorites to miss out on the postseason. This significant change reflects the team's current 5-4 record, placing them behind the Green Bay Packers for the final NFC playoff berth.
The Rams are also trailing the San Francisco 49ers by 2.5 games in the NFC West division. Injuries are further complicating their playoff chances, with wide receiver Puka Nacua being sent to the injured reserve list, joining Davante Adams in missing games. With Matthew Stafford running short of healthy receiving options, the team's chances of being competitive in the postseason are dwindling.
However, should the Rams return to full health and secure a playoff berth, they would still be considered one of the top threats in the league, ranked seventh with +1300 odds to win the Super Bowl.
