They bounced back nicely with a 28-6 primetime win over the Giants, with Jaxson Dart getting injured early on in that one.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"ax\">The Broncos also started their season with a loss, falling 31-10 in Kansas City, but got in the win column with a 20-13 victory over Jacksonville last week.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"b2\">The Rams have won all five meetings against the Broncos, most recently getting a 51-14 victory on Christmas Day in 2022.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"b7\">This season, the SI Betting team is sharing a final score prediction for every game as a fun way to help bettors decide on spread and total bets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"bc\">Using the latest odds and analysis, here\u2019s where I\u2019m leaning for this Week 3 matchup.<\/p>\n<p>Rams vs. Broncos Odds, Spread and Total<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"bm\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/4kJjtBu\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"br\">Spread<\/p>\n<p>Rams -2.5 (-110)Broncos +2.5 (-110)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"c1\">Moneyline<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"cb\">Total<\/p>\n<p>44.5 (Over -115\/Under -105)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"cl\">Line Movement: The spread hasn\u2019t moved <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/nfl-week-3-opening-odds-for-every-game-rams-eagles-packers-favored-in-primetime\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">since the odds opened<\/a> for this matchup.

The Broncos may have gotten past the Jaguars in Week 2, but I still have plenty of doubt that they can return to their 2025 form. The Broncos are 13th in Net Yards per Play at 0.0, and their offense is just 25th in EPA per play and 21st in success rate.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-18\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"d5\">The Rams&#8217; roster is a step above the Broncos, and they&#8217;re going to prove it in this game.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-19\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"da\">Pick: Rams -2.5 (-105) via DraftKings<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-20\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"df\">The Broncos were able to open their home slate with a win over the Jaguars as -2.5 favorites last week, and are once again favored by just -2.5 in primetime this week.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-21\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"dk\">The Rams are a step or two above the Jaguars, though, and while the Broncos are clearly better than the Giants, I\u2019m more or less throwing out Los Angeles\u2019 brutal start down under.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-22\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"dp\">Aaron Donald made his return in Week 2, and he\u2019s only going to get more comfortable early on in the season.
