Green Bay Packers at Los Angeles Rams: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 5 game

October 2, 2024

play

SoFi Stadium has been open since 2020, but the Green Bay Packers (2-2) will make their first trip to the Southern California stadium when they play the Los Angeles Rams (1-3).

Falling behind by 28-points was too much for the Packers to overcome at home against the Minnesota Vikings as their divisional rival moved to 4-0, despite the return of Jordan Love. If Green Bay wants to avoid falling into an early hole in the NFC North standings, a West Coast victory is needed.

The tough start to the 2024 season continues for Sean McVay; the offense struggled in the endzone and the defense couldn’t contain Caleb Williams in a loss in Chicago. Without its star receivers, the season is looking like a waste if Los Angeles can’t turn it around quickly.

Lorenzo Reyes: Packers 26, Rams 13

Green Bay has been rather pedestrian in games Jordan Love has started, though it was an abysmally slow start that doomed the Packers last week against the Vikings.  The Rams, meanwhile, continue to be banged up, and it’s tough to see them keeping pace with Green Bay, even if there is familiarity between these coaching staffs,

Tyler Dragon: Packers 25, Rams 20

The Rams miss wide receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua. The Rams’ loss in Chicago was proof. Jordan Love passed for 389 yards and three interceptions in his return last week. He’ll take better care of the football in Los Angeles.

Jordan Mendoza: Packers 22, Rams 20

Jordan Love has yet to win as the starting quarterback this season. What should help is his running back Josh Jacobs is going against the worst rushing defense in the NFL. The Packers get their first road win over the Rams since 2012.
