Research checklist for Arizona Cardinals at Los Angeles Rams

- Check the final injury and availability reports for Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams close to the start.
- Check injury designations and the depth chart before comparing any price.
- Think about game script: pass volume and rushing volume depend on whether a team leads or trails.
- Look at weather for outdoor games, which can change passing totals.
- Convert any price you are offered to a break-even probability and compare it with your own estimate.
- Write down your reason before you place anything, and decide your unit size in advance.
