What happens if future Hall of Fame defensive tackle Aaron Donald misses the Rams’ Week 15 game against the Washington Commanders on Sunday?
Could Washington pull off the upset?
After last week’s game, oddsmakers quickly installed the Rams as a solid 6.5-point favorite over the Commanders. Of course, as has been the case with Washington’s opponents in recent weeks, the spread has increased the closer the game gets.
That hasn’t happened this week — yet. According to BetMGM, the Rams remain a 6.5-point favorite as of Sunday morning. That could change closer to kickoff, depending on whether Donald plays or not.
Another factor against Washington is the absence of running back Brian Robinson Jr. Robinson is not only the Commanders’ leading rusher but also leads the team in touchdowns and has made an impact in the passing game. He injured his hamstring two weeks ago.
Here are the final betting lines for Sunday’s battle between the Commanders and the Rams:

- Commanders +240
- Rams -300
Against the spread (ATS)
- Commanders +6.5 (-110)
