The Rams are a giant 16.5-point underdog this week, likely leading to an extreme passing game script.The Rams rank as the 5th-least run-oriented team in the league near the goal line (adjusted for context) this year with a 34.5% red zone run rate.The Los Angeles Rams offensive line profiles as the worst in the league this year at blocking for rushers.Opposing offenses have run for the 8th-least touchdowns in the NFL (0.60 per game) against the Kansas City Chiefs defense this year.The Los Angeles Rams have gone for it on 4th down a measly 14.7% of the time since the start of last season (4th-least in the league), which typically means less offensive volume, less TD potential, and lower offensive stats across the board.
