- Rams star Aaron Donald returns after missing the opener, but Los Angeles will be without Myles Garrett due to a knee injury, and Puka Nacua is inactive with a hip issue.
- The Rams are favored by 6.5 points with an over/under of 47.5 points; recent trends and simulations suggest the game will go over the total points line.
- SportsLine's projection model, which has a strong track record with NFL picks, predicts a combined score around 49 points and indicates the over will hit slightly more than half the time.
- Giants QB Jaxson Dart and RB Cam Skattebo showed strong performances in Week 1, while Rams QB Matthew Stafford, despite a slow start, is coming off an MVP-caliber season.
