Did you see the Rams flop at home Sunday in a 38-28 loss to the  Cardinals? 
The game sailed over the total, which is not a surprise as the  Rams have 
the fourth-worst defense in the NFL. Another factor to keep in  mind as we come 
down the stretch of the NFL season is weather. Along with  his absence and numerous 
injuries to the secondary, the Patriots are 6-3  over the total, with a fine passing 
attack but a suddenly poor  secondary.Injuries, too, can change a team significantly. The Bengals got  
them for close to 500 yards Sunday. The Rams are 4-1 over the total at  
home, too, on their slick artificial carpet.Speaking of Lovie Smith, he's  since gone on to 
be head coach of the Chicago Bears. Head coach Romeo  Crennel has a great defensive 
mind, winning three of the last four Super chaussures puma Bowls  as coordinator of the Patriots defense. 
He has an abundance of defensive  talent, and limited offensive options along with a rookie 
quarterback. Think  that's just a trend? Smith ran the same formula a year ago as 
Chicago went  10-6 under the total, meaning they are 18-8 under since he's become Bears  
coach!Handicapping totals is about line value, but it's also about the  styles a football team 
plays. The Bears are 8-2 under the total this season.  The NY Jets have an 
incredibly anemic offense rotating four QBs this season.  It's those type of team strengths and 
weaknesses (bad defense, good offense)  that handicappers look for when examining totals. It's no surprise 
that  Smith prefers to win games with his defense and play conservative offensively  with a 
rookie QB. The Rams have a high octane offense with loads of weapons  in the 
running Tn  Requin and passing game, but the defense has been poor the last two  years under 
coordinator Larry Marmie, who replaced the popular Lovie Smith.  The Bengals/Colts shootout Sunday went over 
the total in the first half!You  might classify the Cleveland Browns in the Chicago Bears 
category, too:  Plodding offense, tough defense. It's obvious Marmie does not possess Smith's  talent for 
defense. It's essential to check weather conditions on game day.  And the Patriots miss Crennel. 
Cold weather is tougher on offenses, as is  chilling winds and snow which is also 
something that will become more  common.The Colts improved defense was one of the big surprises 
of the NFL  season. Stats, styles, coaching and weather all contribute to overs and  unders.Bryan 
Leonard is a documented member of the Professional Handicappers  League. The Jets are 4-2 under 
the total on the road where the offense is  averaging just 7 points per game! 
The Steelers can't wait for Ben  Roethlisberger to get healthy, and notice Pittsburgh is 5-0 
under the total  on the road with a tough defense and a conservative offense without 
Big Ben.  But notice they haven't been as strong of late, giving up over 20 
points in  4 of the last 5 games. After starting the season 5-0 under the 
total, the  Colts offense has begun to click, while the defense has begun to bend 
more  and Indy is 5-0 over the total the last five contests. 70% of the 
Rams games  have gone over the total this season (7-3). Northern cities like Chicago, New  
York, Boston, Philly and Pittsburgh are getting cold this time of year. The  Browns are 
improved defensively under his guidance, going 8-2 under the  total. Read all of his
