Rams Fans United - Los Angeles Rams Fan Discussion Forum

Can the Rams shock the world and beat the undefeated, NFC defending champion Eagles? I probably say, little to no chance, but I can hope.

Why Not??? Sounds like the team better known as the Redskins about beat the eagles today. And the commodores are best known for their music not football. So Why NOT!!!!!

Don't go out on a limb JPM!!! Some say we're rebuilding and they've won 22 of their last 26 regular season games.

Solid OL play, defend the run well and fine ways to get pressure and we have a legit shot. Don’t underestimate Kupp’s return.

Washington has a much better team than Indy. Indy is a team that will be fighting for the first pick in the NFL, and it is not Anthony Richardson's fault. Plus, Washing has a way better Defensive talent, than we do. All we got on Defense is Aaron Donald.

Do you watch the games brah? We have more than AD on D. I’ll give you that Wash is better than Indy. But not so much that they should take Philly to OT.

Is Washington better than Indy? Based on what?

Kupp is returning to practice this week but that doesn't necesarrily mean he'll play against Phili. I'm not saying he won't but it's not a given...

Really Jack?

Right now it looks like there are 9 teams fighting a helluva lot harder for the #1 pick than Indianapolis.

As far as Washington having way better defensive talent than the Rams, maybe prior to the season. But the numbers say otherwise.

YPG allowed:
Rams 295; Washington 352
Passing yds per game allowed:
Rams 184.8; Washington 230
Rushing yds per game allowed:
Rams 111.8; Washington 122.5

Maybe they had a tougher schedule?
Rams: Seattle, San Fran, Cincinnati, Indy
Washington: Arizona, Denver, Buffalo, Philly 

Having said all that, I am not suggesting we're going to beat Philly. But our offense is waaaaay better than Washington's and they put up 31 on Philly.

Eagles favored by 4.5. I'm a little surprised, thought it would be more like 7...
