This Thursday night we have the disappointing Las Vegas Raiders traveling to LA to take on the equally disappointing Rams. Both teams have no playoff aspirations and will play strictly for pride for the rest of the season. Baker Mayfield is now a Ram, and could get the start with very limited prep time, while the Raiders are coming in on a three-game win streak. Some of the player and game props may differ by what site you play on, and if you’re not already on a particular platform, there are plenty that has bonus codes with no deposit needed.

Josh Jacobs 15+ Receiving Yards, Cam Akers 40+ Rushing Yards, Derek Carr 225+ Passing Yards (+240)

This one is a pretty easy one for me. The biggest question mark will be the over on Cak Akers since last week was only the second time all season that he has had at least 50 percent of the snaps — the first time was all the way back in Week 3 with exactly 50 percent. With that said, the Rams may start newly acquired Baker Mayfield, making him their fourth starting QB this season, and he won’t have time to learn much of the playbook, which could equal more runs for Akers.

Jacobs has gone over 15 yards receiving in eight of 12 games this season and with a Rams team that’s fairly stout against the run, look for the Raiders to run more screen plays to get Jacobs in open space. He could go over that 15 yards on one well-designed screen. This one is the easiest of the three legs.

Finally, Derek Carr has gone over 225 passing yards in all but two games this season. The Rams’ defense, as I mentioned above, is stout against the run, even if Aaron Donald misses another game, which will lead the Raiders to throw the ball more. Carr has 240 passing yards or more in five straight games, and I can see him continuing that streak this week against a team that has given up on the season.

LA Rams UNDER 2.5 Total TDs, LV Raiders OVER 2.5 Total TDS, Over 44.5 Total Points (+340)

Assuming Mayfield does in fact get the start this weekend, I see no way that the Rams score three or more touchdowns. As a member of the Panthers, only twice did they score three or more TDs in a game with Baker under center. In one of those games, the defense actually scored one of their three, and in another game, the Panthers scored two junk-time TDs in the fourth quarter after getting down 14-to-42 to the Bengals.

The Raiders have scored at least three TDs in each of their last two games, while the Rams have allowed at least three TDs in four straight and five of their last six. The Raiders could easily put up 35 points on this Rams team this week, which is why I’m also taking the over on the game total. The rams will score two TDs with a couple of FGs thrown in for good measure, with the Raiders putting up somewhere between 27 and 35 points. Game score prediction Rams 20 Raiders 27. Two TDs and two FGs for the Rams with three TDs and two FGs for the Raiders, hitting 47 total points.
