Following their thrilling comeback win over the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field, the Rams will be back home in Week 5 for another brutally tough matchup – and once again, it’ll be in prime time.
They’re hosting the Buffalo Bills next Monday night, a rematch of their 44-42 shootout from the 2024 season when the Rams survived Josh Allen’s heroics.
Heading into this marquee game on Monday Night Football, it’s the 2-2 Rams who are favored over the 3-1 Bills, but only slightly. According to BetMGM, the Rams are 2.5-point favorites against Buffalo, and the over/under is set at 53.5 points, so the oddsmakers are expecting another high-scoring affair.
Rams vs. Bills odds
- Money line: Bills +125 | Rams +150
- Spread: Bills +2.5 (-102) | Rams -2.5 (-118)
- Over/under: 53.5 (O: -110 | U: -108)
The last time these teams met, the Bills were 3.5-point road favorites
against the Rams at SoFi Stadium, but it was Los Angeles that came away victorious. The Rams led 38-21 at the end of the third quarter, only for Allen to put on his Superman cape and bring the Bills almost all the way back.
Buffalo made it 38-35 with 8:49 left in the fourth quarter but Puka Nacua padded the Rams’ lead with a late touchdown to make it 44-35 with 1:54 to play. The Bills stayed in it, pulling within two points on a touchdown run by Allen with 1 minute left.
We may not see 86 points again when these teams play on Monday night, but it’s bound to be another fantastic game between the last two MVP winners.
