The St. Louis Rams, riding high following their thrilling 28-26 win at home over Seattle in Week 7, will be gunning for just their third win on the road in their last eight, SU and ATS, when they visit the revitalized Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Rams gambled on an unconventional playbook, playing with desperation while holding off a late Seahawks rally in last weekend's win. They will need more than winning gambles against a Chiefs squad that has won three of their last four SU, all as underdogs. The Chiefs are also 4-1 ATS in their last five games, while holding opponents to under 18 points per game.
