At this point in the season, each game is bigger than the last. The Rams earned their ninth win on Sunday against the Cardinals, but they now face their toughest test of the year in the Philadelphia Eagles.

A win will temporarily give the Rams the No. 2 seed in the NFC, while a loss will significantly hurt their chances of earning a first-round bye. Fortunately for the Rams, the game will be played in Los Angeles, giving them a slight advantage.

That’s likely the reason Vegas has Sean McVay’s team as the favorite in Week 14. According to Vegas Insider, the Rams opened as 2.5-point favorites over the Eagles.

This isn’t entirely surprising. Philly lost to the Seahawks on Sunday night and looked unimpressive offensively. The Eagles are still a great team and may very well win it all this season, but their loss to Seattle certainly shows they’re not unbeatable.

The Rams will absolutely have to be at their best in order to beat the Eagles on Sunday afternoon, from moving the ball consistently to containing Carson Wentz and the Eagles’ high-powered offense.
