49ers vs. Rams Prediction and Pick
Heading into the final week of the regular season in the NFL, you may not guess that the Rams and the 49ers hold the top two offenses in the NFL. It may be surprising, but it's true from a yards per play perspective. They rank first in that category in the league, each averaging 6.1 yards per offensive play.
That's in large part due to their explosive passing schemes. They also rank second and third in yards per pass attempt. The 49ers are averaging 8.5 yards per throw, while the Rams are averaging 8.1.
I expect them to excel in that area in Week 18 as well, as the secondaries for both teams are vulnerable. The Rams defensive strength is stopping the run, but they rank 11th in opponent yards per pass attempt. The 49ers are right behind them, ranking 13th in that stat.
With that all being said, I'm going to take a shot at this being an offensive shootout. Give me the OVER 44.5.
