It’s a classic Week 18 NFL odds battle between Sam Darnold and Carson Wentz as a pair of playoff-bound NFC West teams wrap up the regular season with the San Francisco 49ers sitting as a 4-point favorite vs. the visiting Rams, who are content sitting every important starter.
The 49ers have the No.1 seed in the NFC locked up but with the bye looming, Kyle Shanahan is giving many of his key starters some early snaps which is why the 49ers to cover the first half has become a very popular bet for a wild Week 18 slate.
I break down the Week 18 NFL odds and offer my free NFL picks for Rams at 49ers on Sunday, January 7.

It’s a play…
It was a wild Week 2 in the National Football League as we saw plenty of upsets, plenty of long-scoring plays, and nearly 4,000 people knocked out of the $1 million Circa Survivor pool after the 1:00 p.m. batch of games. The point-spread picks fared slightly better, but only just.
This week, there are just two spreads bigger than a touchdown, with seven of the remaining 14 games sitting at a field goal or less.
If you’re looking to pad the lead or get back into the race for your season-long office pool, I give you my NFL picks against the spread for Week 3.
