QUARTERBACK

  7.13 Y/A

  Through 3 games in 2026, Jalen Hurts threw for 620 passing yards, completed 64.4% of his passes and averaged 7.13 yards per attempt. Last season over 16 games he threw for 3224 yards, completed 64.8% and averaged 7.1 yards per attempt, 25-6 touchdowns to interceptions. This season's 5-3 touchdown-to-interception line is 3 games in.

• Matthew Stafford is the projected starting quarterback for LAR

  7.86 Y/A

  Through 3 games in 2026, Matthew Stafford threw for 872 passing yards, completed 60.4% of his passes and averaged 7.86 yards per attempt. Last season over 17 games he threw for 4707 yards, completed 65% and averaged 7.88 yards per attempt, 46-8 touchdowns to interceptions. This season's 6-4 touchdown-to-interception line is 3 games in.

TRENCHES

• LAR: 101.3 rushing yards allowed per game to PHI's 127.3

  26 YPG

  LAR is at 101.3 rushing yards allowed per game over 3 games; PHI is at 127.3 over 3 games. Those are what each defense has allowed in this season's games through Oct 3.

PASS RUSH

• LAR: 1.67 sacks taken per game to PHI's 2.67

  1 SACKS

  LAR is at 1.67 sacks taken per game over 3 games; PHI is at 2.67 over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 1.77 over 17 games and PHI at 2.33 over 17 games.

PACE & SCRIPT

• LAR: 66.3 offensive plays per game to PHI's 57.3

  9 PLAYS

  LAR is at 66.3 offensive plays per game over 3 games; PHI is at 57.3 over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 63.9 over 17 games and PHI at 59.4 over 17 games.

• LAR: 31:05 time of possession per game to PHI's 28:44

  2:21 TOP

  LAR is at 31:05 time of possession per game over 3 games; PHI is at 28:44 over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 30:46 over 17 games and PHI at 30:11 over 17 games.

TURNOVERS

• LAR: 1 takeaways per game to PHI's 0

  1 TO

  The Rams have forced 1 turnover a game over three games, and Philadelphia has yet to force one. Zero takeaways in three games is more likely bad luck than a permanent trait, since turnovers bounce around. For this game, the Rams have the edge on extra possessions so far, but the Eagles' number is the one most likely to change.

EXPLOSIVE PLAYS

• LAR: 6.33 yards per play to PHI's 5.33

  1 Y/P

  The Rams average 6.33 yards a play to the Eagles' 5.33, close to last season's 6.15 and 5.27, so this gap has held up. In their last game the Rams had 7 plays of 20-plus yards, including Stafford hitting Davante Adams for 49 and Konata Mumpfield for a 48-yard score, while Philadelphia had 2. The Rams win with chunk plays, and the Eagles grind it out, so a Rams offense that hits deep shots on the road changes how this game goes.

RED ZONE

• PHI: 66.7% red-zone scoring rate to LAR's 50%

  16.7 PP

  LAR is at 50% red-zone scoring rate over 3 games; PHI is at 66.7% over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 63.2% over 17 games and PHI at 70.5% over 17 games.

MISMATCH

• LAR: 284 pass yards a game to PHI's 191.7

  284 VS 191.7

  The Rams are throwing for 284 yards a game, Philadelphia 191.7, over three games. This is close to last season, when the Rams sat at 268.1 and the Eagles at 194.3, so the gap looks real. Philadelphia has to keep Rams receivers in front of them and win with a slower, ground-heavy game. Player prop bettors should note the Rams passing volume has held steady across two seasons.

COVERAGE

• LAR: 4.5 yards per play allowed to PHI's 5.17

  0.67 Y/P

  The Rams allow 4.5 yards per play over 3 games, a stingy mark, while Philadelphia gives up 5.17. That is the cleaner efficiency stat here, since it ignores how many snaps a defense faced. Three games can be shaped by weak offenses, and the sheet does not tell us who they played. If the Rams number holds up, it favors them in a game where Philadelphia has to move the ball steadily.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

• PHI lead the series with LAR since 2025

  1-0 SERIES

  This is one game: Philadelphia beat the Rams 33-26 at home on Sep 21 last season. It was a high-scoring game decided by one score, so the Eagles winning the series counts for little on its own. With the matchup back in Philadelphia, that result says more about these offenses being able to score on each other than about who has the edge.

REPLACEMENT

• Lane Johnson (OT) is inactive for PHI

  INACTIVE

  Johnson, Philadelphia's tackle, sat out Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams for a personal reason, with no injury involved. That means his absence should not carry over the way a physical injury would. Watch for word on his return before pricing the Eagles' line play into future games.

• Terrance Ferguson (TE) is on injured reserve for LAR

  IR

  Ferguson is on injured reserve with an ankle injury and is out for Sunday's game in Philadelphia. The Rams lose a tight end, so the remaining tight ends pick up his snaps and any short targets he would have drawn. Factor that in if you are looking at Rams tight end props.

• Ronnie Rivers (RB) is on injured reserve for LAR

  IR

  Rivers has been on injured reserve since Sep 24 with a calf injury, so he misses the Philadelphia game. He is a depth running back, and the Rams' other backs carry the load. His absence changes little for Los Angeles.

• Jordan Davis (DT) is questionable for PHI

  QUESTIONABLE

  Davis is questionable for Philadelphia against the Rams, with no injury detail listed. He anchors the middle of the Eagles' defensive line, so his status matters for how well they hold up against the run. If he sits, Rams running backs get a friendlier interior, so watch the inactive list before betting Rams rushing numbers.

• Myles Garrett (DE) is on injured reserve for LAR

  IR

  Garrett is on injured reserve after surgery on his left knee and faces a six-week recovery, though the pass rusher wants to be back sooner. That rules Garrett out against Philadelphia, which takes the Rams' top edge threat off the field. Expect less pressure on the Eagles quarterback, and treat any early return talk as hopeful until it shows up on the practice report.

SITUATIONAL

• LAR: 284 team passing yards per game to PHI's 191.7

  92.3 YPG

  The Rams throw for 284 yards a game against the Eagles' 191.7, and both are close to last season's numbers, 268.1 and 194.3. That consistency makes this a style clash that should hold: the Rams win through the air, the Eagles keep their passing volume modest. Expect Philadelphia to try to control tempo on the ground and limit Rams possessions, which matters for passing yard props on both sides.

• LAR: 21.3 first downs per game to PHI's 15.7

  5.7 FD

  The Rams are getting 21.3 first downs a game to Philadelphia's 15.7 through three games. Both are below last season, 23.3 and 18, but the gap between them is similar. The Rams are the team that keeps drives alive, while the Eagles have been more stop-and-start, which favors the Rams holding the ball longer.

• LAR: 7.37 yards per pass attempt to PHI's 5.93

  1.43 Y/A

  LAR is at 7.37 yards per pass attempt over 3 games; PHI is at 5.93 over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 7.24 over 17 games and PHI at 6.33 over 17 games.

• LAR: 50% fourth-down conversion rate to PHI's 33.3%

  16.7 PP

  LAR is at 50% fourth-down conversion rate over 3 games; PHI is at 33.3% over 3 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 3. Last season LAR was at 66.7% over 17 games and PHI at 52.4% over 17 games.

• LAR (1-2) at PHI (2-1)

  -12 PT GAP

  Philadelphia is 2-1 but -14, a record that flatters the Eagles, while the Rams are 1-2 at -2, close to even. Both lost last time out, and each split is one game: Rams 0-1 away, Eagles 1-0 at home. Over three games, margin is the better read, and it favors the Rams. If the line leans on Philadelphia's record, the road side has a case.

AFTER GARY

• LAR -3.5 → -3.5

  NO MOVE

  Gary's number was -3.5; the market closed at -3.5.
