Los Angeles Rams Week 13 Predictions
4. Rams sack Trevor Lawrence multiple times
Los Angeles has a supremely talented pass rush that should get after opposing quarterbacks every game. Aaron Donald and Von Miller have had historic careers, and they are some of the greatest pass rushers of this generation.
The Jaguars don't have an elite offensive line to counter this pass rush, which will make it a long day for Lawrence and the offense. On the season, the Rams have the 7th most sacks in the league and have an underrated pass rusher in Leonard Floyd. Floyd has been the forgotten name behind Donald and Miller, but he has a big impact. With a good secondary to back them up, the defense should get after Lawrence and make it difficult in the pocket.
3. Cooper Kupp goes over 100 yards
Cooper Kupp has been one of the best receivers in the NFL this season. He has gone from being a rising star to a solidified number one target. This season, Kupp has 92 receptions for 1,237 yards and ten touchdowns. His numbers have been elite, and he has been vital for the offense.
While Kupp has been great and consistent, it is still hard to get over 100 yards in a game. A matchup against the Jaguars will be great for Kupp, and he should torch them due to his route-running and catch ability.
2. Matthew Stafford has a bounce-back game
Matthew Stafford struggled during the Rams' three-game skid and needs to have a bounce-back game. Prior to the month of November, Stafford was in the MVP conversation, but since their atrocious month has fallen back. This season, Stafford has thrown for 3,316 yards along with 27 touchdowns and nine interceptions. These numbers as a whole are great, but in November, he threw for 839 yards along with five touchdowns and five interceptions.
He can't continue to play down at the level, or the Rams Super Bowl hopes will diminish. This game against the Jaguars is an excellent opportunity to get back in rhythm as they sit at 2-9 on the year.
1. Rams cruise to a win
While the Rams are on a losing streak, they should get back on track. It may take time to get back to the way they were playing early on, but it all starts with this game. At the same time, the Rams have one of the most talented rosters in the league. While the additions of Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. haven't panned out yet, it seems to reason that it will.
Against a rebuilding team in Jacksonville, Sean McVay's team should dominate on both sides of the ball. A win this week will put the Rams back on track and in the fight for a Super Bowl. Although the NFC has many contenders, the Rams have every reason to believe in their roster.
