Prior to the Rams playing the Jets in Week 15, I scoured the internet looking for just one person who picked New York to win. As you’d expect, that person was hard to find. In fact, I didn’t even become aware of one until a TST reader posted one in the comments section after the game.
You know, after that game that the Jets won.
Well, a few weeks later, the Rams find themselves in the Jets’ recent position of being that unheralded underdog pick that almost nobody is picking to win. And like the Jets and many other NFL teams in history who won when nobody expected them to, the LA Rams are hoping to defy the preconceived, made-up odds against them this Saturday against the Packers.
