Denver Broncos -5.5 alternate spread (+124) over Los Angeles Rams
The Broncos offense will be back to normal this week with the return of starting QB Russell Wilson, and while normal service for the Denver offense has been frankly awful for most of the season, Wilson had never looked better in a Broncos uniform than he did when he was hurt in the 34-28 loss to the Chiefs. These teams are both languishing at the foot of their respective West divisions with 4-10 records, but while the Broncos are starting to show some flashes of progress, the Rams’ season continues to spiral.
Offensive stars Matt Stafford and Cooper Kupp have been out of the equation for some time, and defensive leader Aaron Donald is on the sidelines too with an ankle injury and not expected to play again this season. The Broncos will have no excuses for not beating this version of the Super Bowl champions after their promising performance against Kansas City and win over the Cardinals last time out, and extending the spread to -5.5 to give this SGP some extra pop may not prove too risky.
