Los Angeles Rams vs San Francisco 49ers expert picks
We’ve got some great NFL picks for this week’s game between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers, including a spread and total selection.
Against the spread pick: 49ers -2 (-110) over Rams
San Francisco has covered in each of the last 5 meetings with the Rams since 2020, including the playoffs. In the same exact spot last year on a Monday Night, the Niners blew out the Rams 31-10 as 4-point underdogs at home. They realistically should have beaten the Rams in the NFC title game and were a dropped interception away from going to the Super Bowl. Of Matthew Stafford’s 21 games last year, his EPA performances against this San Francisco defense produced outcomes that ranked 9th, 13th and 20th out of those games. Only 1 game, Week 18 at home, was an above average performance last year.
The Niners offense, mainly Jimmy G, struggled against a really good Broncos defense last Sunday night but they should find more success at home and against an overrated Rams defense. No matter who the Rams end up throwing out there on Monday, the Niners and Kyle Shanahan should find major holes.

Over/Under totals pick: Under 42.5 points (-110)
Both of these offenses have had serious issues moving the football and capitalizing in the red zone in 2022. The 49ers offense was a disaster against the Broncos, managing to score only 10 points while tallying less than 300 yards of total offens. In that same vein, the Rams passing attack has been limited over the first 3 weeks and the running game has been even worse.
Los Angeles has failed to record 100 yards in each of its first 3 games, and that shouldn’t change against a stout 49ers front seven. The under is 4-1 in the Rams’ last 5 divisional matchups, while the 49ers are 5-0 to the under in their last 5 games following a loss. Look for both of those trends to continue in what should be a close, low-scoring contest.
