Rams Fans United - Los Angeles Rams Fan Discussion Forum

Eagles currently favored by 6. We'll have to see what the injury report looks like coming out of the Vikings game. Eagles pretty banged up too...

Eagles then probably the Lions? When the Rams reach the SB no one can say they didn't earn it. This is a young team. The blessing is they come in with no doubts. We could see it in the Vikings that once things started out badly it snowballed. The doubts from the failure the week before started to creep in. With Darnold it was very evident. But you could also see it in their OL as well. As I pointed out before the game if the Rams got out big early, that the game would be over before the 4th quarter was over. They gave up, including O'Connell while there was about 10 min left on the clock. The evidence was clear when they didn't play with a sense of urgency in the 4th quarter.

The Lions might have set the stage, but it was the Rams who threw them into the coffin and nailed the lid shut. Although this was a statement win, next Sunday will be a bigger statement win. The Lions won't admit it but they don't want to see the Rams with the Super Bowl on the line. Yeah a win next Sunday will be sending the Lions a clear message....you're next.

The scary thing for the NFL is that because this team is filled with rookies and second-year players, they will be even better next year and be around for a few more years beyond that.

This is the start of the Ram SB window opening.

Philadelphia will be an insane environment, our biggest advantage is the QB HC combo.

Hurts has looked awful. It’s hard to win in the playoffs when you’re outclassed at HC and QB.

If our D keeps playing like this we’ve got a solid shot. I would love nothing more than to stick it to the Eagles and all their gross, obnoxious, big mouth fans, including Chris Long.

Very few people giving The Rams a chance to win this game. As of now Vegas has the spread 6.5 points. I thought the Eagles looked lackluster in their WC win. They have a solid O and D line but Hurts looks diminished. The key to this game will be protecting Matthew and stopping Saquon. This is a winnable game.

Need to keep an eye on the weather report. Currently, it's a high of 40 with a 55% chance of rain, winds 12-14 MPH. Could be a factor.

Weather can always be a factor. I'm sure the Eagles are hoping for crappy while the Rams are hoping for a clean field that isn't below freezing.

I see the point spread at either 5.5 or 6. That’s not a prohibitive number.

I don’t care what the talking heads in the media say. Their opinion isn’t worth anymore than my dogs. And my dog has been way off picking games this year.

Momentum.

That's the game changer. The D is the red hot engine that's driving us forward. While we have the talent-- during the regular season it was very inconsistent. And, at times, baffling stifled. Bad play calls, poor/slow throws from MS. Jamming Kyren down the middle. Etc. At our best, though, this team competes and defeats the best. Defense has actually gotten better from their solid start all year, so not really worried about them (other than some injuries, glad we got JJ back!)

Need, again, to start fast. Spread the ball AROUND. Kupp still has the juice-- but he cannot be the default target.

At the WC game, the energy was from the Rams side was electric from the start. Fans included. I'm a bit worried with everyone telling me what a nasty enviro Philly is. Does that means its gonna be a truly hostile environment? Offense needs to shut that noise down and generate their own voice and energy from the jump. If that happens, I think the game will change to our favor very quickly, as it did in AZ.

Tired? What was the bus experience like?
