Rams traveling to NY a week before playing SF, this a huge sell high spot as well on the Rams as they been playing great and now people saying 'no one wants to play the Rams right now or in playoffs,' just such a let down spot here. Rams are going to bust a lot of teasers and parlays this week. I do except this line to keep dropping and Rams to have all the tickets but money to be on NYG."
