Hey BettrNation family! You may be having a bit of déjà vu 🤔, as we have another great NFC West matchup for Thursday Night Football this week! Last week, we saw the Arizona Cardinals almost pull off an improbable comeback 😲 against the Seattle Seahawks, and that game may just have been the appetizer to an even more captivating matchup between the 49ers and Rams tonight! Both teams are sitting at 3-1, although these teams may be trending in opposite directions ⬆️⬇️. The 49ers are coming off a(n ugly) loss to the Jags and are battling a pesky injury 🤒 bug, while the Rams should arguably be 4-0 if not for blowing a sizable lead against the Eagles in Week 3 (which, for the record, cost us one of our parlays…😒). In addition to this great NFL matchup, there are some great MLB Playoff games today, including one involving arguably the greatest rivalry in sports - the NY Yankees vs. the Boston Red Sox ⚾
As we flag below, there is a lot of value that you can find in tonight’s NFL matchup according to ESPN Analytics 🤑 (Hint: those 49ers ⛏️ may be undervalued by the market!!)
Check out our Scouting Report below and make sure you are prepared for today’s action!
