With the Packers playing Philly I see that as a huge positive. They are pissed off and they were built to beat teams like Philly and Detroit.

In 2021 the Cowboys were the big bully of the playoffs. Because of the seeding the Niners had to play them and did the Rams a huge favor by beating them. If the Packers beat Philly they will then match up with the Lions in the divisional round. The Rams will play either the Bucs in Tampa or the Commodes come to Sofi.

If the Packers who dislike Detroit like the Rams dislike the Niners, win it would set up the NFC Championship game in SoFi. So again it will be like 2021 where the Niners did the heavy lifting but the Rams got the glory. :lol2:

That said winning in the playoffs is never easy no matter who you play. Mistakes are magnified.

I like what McVay said (via the TV crew)......"I'm not trying to win one playoff game. I'm trying to win the Super Bowl".

Sitting the starters is the only way to go. Fans can debate that, claim it's better to win vs a Division opponent; have the best record in the division; but like Vilma said, "health and rest are more important".

We're guaranteed to be in the final 9 after Sunday night!! :lol2: I remember 2021 and watching the weekend games, seeing who is on our schedule next before we even play the game. I also think it's cool the AFC games are the first 3 played, then the NFC.

If Green Bay can upset Philly....and there's no reason they can't.....getting by the Vikings would put us vs Washington or @ Tampa. Hey, who wouldn't love a Packers/Rams CCG in L.A.? :lol2:

I am feeling like the Rams are going to be on fire on MNF. Not sure how far we can go but, this team can beat anyone. Even KC.

Relentlessly pressure Darnold, and cover Jefferson like a wet t-shirt and we win.

Our offense has exploded just two or three times this season. Vs Minnesota, New England and Buffalo. It's nice to see they picked important games to do it. Our D has played real well, yesterday with the 2's and 1's was a bit different. Our special teams has played well all year except for the Seattle game and blocked punt. But the D picked them up there. They know (O & D & ST) it's the time of the year when a complete, totally focused effort is needed. Can't they do it? We'll see. If they can, they can beat ANYBODY.

I think that we all have a pretty good idea the Rams aren't as good as their SB winning crew. I think they will beat the Vikings. From there they will very likely be underdogs(and as of today they are 3 point dogs to the Vikings) to whoever they get. Can they win it all? If a team is in the playoffs anything is possible but their number 10 power ranking is fair although I believe the Rams are better than the number 9 ranked Broncos.

Minnesota was the best opponent we could face. Darnold can be off on this throws. Stopped counting how many overthrows he had last night. If they can move him off his spot consistently they can limit their offense.

But it won't matter if our offense is not up to the task. They struggled the last 3 meaningful games. Its something they gotta focus on. Keep within one score in the second half and I like our chances.
