The Rams won big in Week 14, and that was important for Matthew Stafford's MVP odds. Stafford is back to being the betting favorite to win MVP after throwing for 281 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-17 blowout of the Cardinals. Stafford is -175 to win MVP. Drake Maye, last week's favorite who had a bye in Week 14, is +200.

With four games left, Prescott is on pace to set career-highs in completion percentage (69%), completions and pass attempts (on pace for 436/632). Prescott has an impressive touchdown to interception ratio (26-10) and will likely finish above 4,500 passing yards as one of the league’s leading passers, if not the leader.

This was a low-scoring affair last time these teams met, with the two sides combining for just 24 points in a Saints upset win. Carolina has been good against the spread this year at 8-5, while New Orleans is 5-8 ATS. The Panthers are also 7-6 to the Over this year, while the Saints are 4-9.
