NFL Best Bets & Odds: Week 14 Monday Night Football
Los Angeles Rams vs. Arizona Cardinals
Date: Monday, Dec. 13, 2021
Time: 8:15 p.m. EST
Venue: State Farm Stadium — Glendale, Ariz.
Coverage: ESPN
Desperation mode is setting in for the Rams, who are fighting for a wild card spot. These have lost three of their past four games, with the only win coming against the Jaguars. Matthew Stafford is not healthy, the offense seems to have lost its chemistry as soon as Robert Woods got hurt, and the defense continues to get bullied. This could be a statement game. However, the statement may not be positive.
The Cardinals returned Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins to the lineup last week, and they were able to tough out a win against the Bears. Yes, Arizona has the best record in the NFL. However, they play to their opponent’s skill level no matter how low of a skill level it is, and that is a dangerous game to play. They did easily win in the first matchup against the Rams, 37-20, however.

Rams vs. Cardinals NFL Best Bet
We are using the new OddsShopper to figure out the best bet for Monday Night Football. According to the model, betting the Cardinals -2 is the best bet to place, giving it an expected ROI of 5%. The tool also gives this bet a 58% probability to hit. It makes sense given the way the Rams are playing. Stafford is clearly banged up, and he does not have chemistry with Odell Beckham Jr. Stafford will also give the opposing team a couple of plays. If the Cardinals make them and limit their own mistakes, it should be a relatively easy home. However, these divisional games are usually competitive through four quarters.
