LA Rams loving that road ‘dog role as betting odds are set

On the road again, can’t wait to get back out on the road again. The LA Rams have been road warriors throughout the 2021 NFL season, losing only two games with suitcases in hand. Those two losses? Well, they were suffered at the hands of the Green Bay Packers in Week 12, and the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10. Coincidentally, those two teams face off against one another in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs.

But the LA Rams are road underdogs in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs. So just for fun, why not examine how well the Rams perform in that scenario?

In 2020, the LA Rams found themselves as road underdogs seven times. Their record as road underdogs? 4-3. That is not factoring in the spread (which the LA Rams were 4-2-1 against the spread in those games). We’ve listed the line and all 16 games from the 2020 season for you to check out for yourself:
