Passing props
Passing yards
Over the last two weeks, Jalen Hurts has thrown for just 253 total yards, including just 101 in a Week 2 win over the Chiefs. Meanwhile, Matthew Stafford has thrown for over 240 yards in each game.
It wasn’t all that different in their last meeting, with Hurts throwing for 128 yards while Stafford racked up 324. For this week’s matchup, both sportsbooks have it a bit closer, with Hurts’ over/under set at 190.5 passing yards and Stafford at 220.5.
Passing TDs
Hurts has not thrown a touchdown while Stafford has thrown for three, including two last week. Still, the sportsbooks have Hurts and Stafford listed at 1.5 touchdowns each.

Rushing props
Eagles running back Saquon Barkley rushed for 88 yards in last week’s Super Bowl rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs while Hurts rushed for 15. Rams running back Kyren Williams rushed for 66 yards in both games.
Last year against the Rams, it was a different story for Barkley, who racked up 460 yards in their two meetings — including a franchise record 255 yards in their regular season meeting. Will he be able to have the same impact on Sunday?
Receiving props
DraftKings hadn’t released the over/under line for Eagles receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith at the time this article writing was published, but FanDuel had them included.
Brown is coming off a week that saw him record five receptions for 27 yards after just one catch (on one target) for eight yards in Week 1. Smith has just seven receptions for 69 yards through the first two games.
The Eagles pass defense will face its toughest challenge of the young season in Rams receiver Puka Nacua, who has 18 catches for 22 yards, including 10 for 130 last week. Davante Adams caught six for 106 last week.

Touchdowns
Hurts and Barkley are the only players to find the end zone for the Eagles, combining for five rushing touchdowns. For the Rams, Nacua, Adams, Davis Allen, and Blake Corum have found the end zone. Barkley enters Sunday’s game as the favorite to score a touchdown, followed closely by Hurts and then Williams.
