Final

Rams 20Commanders 13

The Rams won (they closed at -221 on the moneyline).
Against the closing spread, the Rams covered -4.5.
33 total points against a closing total of 48: the under hit.

Bottom line before the start

Sharp signals point to the Commanders: a reverse line move, a steam move and the line moving 1.5 points their way. None of your books beats Pinnacle's fair price once the juice is counted.

The read before the start

Pinnacle had Rams -6 on Mon, Nov 2. It's now -4.5, 1.5 points toward the Commanders.
At DraftKings (mostly everyday bettors), 72% of spread bets and 74% of the money are on the Rams.
At Circa, where pros bet, 61% of the money and 70% of bets are on the Rams.
That's reverse line movement: most bets are on the Rams, but the line moved toward the Commanders. Books move against the crowd when respected money hits the other side.
The sharpest moment: around Fri, Nov 6, 8:03 AM ET, Pinnacle and 3 other books moved the spread the same way within an hour. That's a steam move, usually big money hitting at once.
None of your books beats Pinnacle's fair price once the juice is counted, so there's nothing to grab right now. (A better number with heavy juice can still be a worse bet.)
On the exchanges (reference only, about $866K traded on Kalshi), the Commanders are +181 to +203 on the moneyline; Pinnacle has +195 and your best is +195.
The total went 47 → 48 (toward the over).

Line timeline

Every time Pinnacle changed its number, with the old number still at your books right then and how long it lasted. That window is when the best price is there to grab. Times are ET; prices are checked every 2–30 minutes, so the exact minute can be off a little.

How the line moved

Pinnacle is the sharp book: it takes the biggest bets and moves first. When your books trail it, that number is often worth grabbing.

Opened = the first price the app saved at that book (for games posted before Sep 17, the earliest it has). Best = the best value at your books. The % = how much better (+) or worse (−) each price is than Pinnacle's fair price, counting both the number and the juice (a better number with heavy juice can still be worse). Green is +1% or more: worth betting. Most prices are a little negative: that's the book's cut. Tap any price at your books to log a bet.

Boosted odds

Money vs tickets · Spread

Few bets but lots of money on one side means big bettors are there. If the line moves against the side most people bet, that's reverse line movement. Pinnacle doesn't publish its splits; Circa is the sharp-book view when it posts a game.

Sharp read from the line

Pinnacle's line went from Rams −6 to −4.5: the money moving it is on the Commanders, even though 72% of spread bets are on the Rams. A line moving against where most bets are usually means bigger, sharper bets on the Commanders.
