Expect 'Rock Fight' When Rams, Seahawks Face off for Third Time

Sam Darnold, Drake Maye, Matthew Stafford and Jarrett Stidham are the four remaining quarterbacks who are aiming to hoist the Lombardi Trophy next month in Santa Clara.

Just like we all predicted back in August.

The Seahawks (+150) are Super Bowl favorites at every sportsbook, followed by the Rams (+220), Patriots (+250) and longshot Broncos (+1200), with starting quarterback Bo Nix sidelined after suffering a broken ankle last week.

Rams +8.5 to Broncos +11.5 is very enticing.

Speaking of the Broncos, they’re obviously turning the car keys over to Stidham, a 29-year-old career backup who played his college ball at Baylor and Auburn. The betting market is
