Rams @ Cardinals: More or Less Contest
Recommended Prop Pick:
Matthew Stafford less than 280.5 passing yards and Kyler Murray more than 250.5 passing yards
The Rams will likely try to counteract the Cardinals passing attack by putting the ball on the ground, and this might be their best option given the fact that Arizona has only allowed an average of just over 190 passing yards per game to quarterbacks over their previous three games, which ranks eighth-best in the league. They have, however, allowed running backs to average 112 rushing yards per game over that same span, which ranks seventh-worst in the league over that span.
Although the Cardinals are favored in this game, I think they will win this game by moving the ball through the air as the Rams have struggled against the pass this season. On the season,. they have allowed over 236 passing yards per game to quarterbacks, including a 268-yard performance from Kyler Murray back in Week 4. Murray has hit this total in two of his previous three games and should have his full complement of receivers in this one as DeAndre Hopkins could finally be 100% after dealing with a hamstring issue.

Rams @ Cardinals: Fantasy Challenge Contest
Recommended Prop Pick:
Cooper Kupp, James Conner, and DeAndre Hopkins to combine for more than 62.5 fantasy points
While I do think the Rams will try to run the ball a bit more in this game, there is zero chance I would leave Kupp out of this contest. He has been an absolute beast in 2021. Over his previous five games, he has averaged nearly nine receptions and 111 receiving yards per game while also getting in the end zone twice over that span. Yes, the Cardinals have been solid against wide receivers, but Kupp has been matchup-proof in 2021 and Stafford continues to look his way as noted by his 136 targets on the season, the most of any wide receiver in the league.
James Conner has been performing very well while Chase Edmonds has been away, and while Edmonds could return this week, it is unlikely he will carry a major workload in his first game back off of IR. Edmonds should be able to contribute in the rushing game and passing game as he has garnered four or more targets in three of his previous four games. He is also the running back the Cardinals trust the most at the goal line as he has 27% of the teams red zone touches and has put the ball in the end zone 14 total times this season, including a two-touchdown performance against these Rams back in Week 4.
DeAndre Hopkins should be feeling pretty good in this game after playing limited snaps last week against the Bears while nursing a lingering hamstring issue. He has been a favorite target of Murray as he has garnered seven or more targeted in four of the seven games he has been healthy for. He has also managed to find himself in the end zone on all but three games this season while also having scored twice in two separate games. This is a Rams defense that has allowed wide receivers to average over 37 fantasy points per game over their previous three games, which ranks sixth-worst in the league over that span.
