Bookies.com: Bet the Rams on the moneyline vs. 49ers in NFL Week 18

Bill Speros writes: "Sam Darnold vs. Carson Wentz? The Dream Week 18 matchup the NFL envisioned when it scheduled this one. Or not. The 49ers own the No. 1 seed, homefield, and a first-round bye in the NFC. They can make it a two-week bye here. The Niners are still banged up and need the extra week to get well. The Rams clinched a playoff spot in Week 17 with their 26-25 win over the Giants. LA holds hold the No. 6 seed in the NFC, is 6-1 since the bye, and has sped-up the post-Super Bowl rebuild by a full season."
