With number 1 pick Sam Bradford as their starting quarterback, the St Louis Rams may not be a joke this season at the sportsbook website. The rookie will start the opener at home on Sunday vs the Cardinals. The Rams are 4-point underdogs at the online sportsbook.
The Rams actually have nowhere to go but up. There are some encouraging signs for St Louis starting with their rookie quarterback, though they’ve been terrible for years. Bradford competed quite well in the preseason and was even a lot better than AJ Feeley who was expected to open up the year as the starter. Head coach Steve Spagnulo is thrilled about his squad proceeding into the Sport Gambling year.
Rams Gaining Action at the online sports books – How is this for something unconventional? The Rams are gaining some action from gamblers this week. Part of that is because people do not like the Cardinals but another part of it is due to the fact bettors at the online sportsbook like the looks of St Louis with Bradford at quarterback.
Bradford is All set – Bradford is no slob. He won the 2008 Heisman Championship with Oklahoma. As he signed a six-year, $78 million deal with $50 million in assured money, the Rams are paying him major money. In his 2 preseason starts, Bradford was 21 for 28 for 257 yards and three touchdowns.
Interesting Match – If you said before the year that you had to watch Arizona against St Louis in the starter you almost certainly would have been called insane. That isn’t the case now. This competition is actually interesting now for bettors at the sports books website. Derek Anderson is starting for Arizona while Bradford is starting his first competition as a rookie. There are in fact reasons to watch and bet on this match and who would have thought we might say that a few weeks ago? Arizona is just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games so that does not assist them. The issue if you wager the St Louis Rams is that they’re 7-21 ATS in their last 28 games against the NFC West but you’re hoping that Bradford makes a difference for them. One trend that does assist them is that the home team in this series is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings.
