SUNDAY

SAINTS (Pick) over Rams: LA got ace wideout Cooper Kupp back to practice midweek, which potentiall­y makes Jared Goff jump for joy — and Saints are coming off their payback game against the Vikings. But home side’s doing everything right, Rams remain under those traditiona­l NFL-style perfect-season pressures, and Drew Brees is having a campaign for the ages. Significan­t line move through the “pick” area toward New Orleans was concerning before it leveled off ... but excepting the

rout of the 49ers, the Rams haven’t beaten anyone by more than a touchdown in a month and a half, and are off a horseshoe-aided home escape vs. the Pack. Minus-2 or less remains reasonable lay with Dem

Saints, for one unit.

Chiefs/BROWNS (Under 51): Talk about a dream scenario for Andy Reid! The Chiefs invade Cleveland with the infinitely superior offense, thus permitting visitor to dictate a deliberate attack tempo. The Browns go forward under new head coach Gregg Williams, ex-defensive coordinato­r — and a stop-unit guy first, last and always. Under, for one unit.

LAST WEEK: 2-1. SEASON: 9-9.
