Rams will have to play 4 quarters next week vs Niners ...

The Cards took care of the Cows yesterday so the Rams will have to play for the division & #2 seed on Sunday.

Playoff positions, seedings, and matchups will be on the line next Sunday.

Saints could walk in through the back door & punch a playoff ticket but ...

Can we defeat the Falcons ?

This has been a crazy season of football. Thoughts?

Re: Rams will have to play 4 quarters next week vs Niners ...

Seriously I've watched this game coming up on the schedule and this is the equivalent of our SuperBowl.
We come out of Atlanta with a win and everything after is a plus.
Only issue is we need to play 4 quarters and by the grace of God maybe score a TD in the first quarter.

Re: Rams will have to play 4 quarters next week vs Niners ...

Hopefully the COVID timing is on our side. The roster has pretty much weathered the storm. We should be back to full strength as far as that goes. I would be surprised if Armstead isn't in there this week, as well. McCoy will certainly be back at center. As should Vannett at TE.

With our defense we can beat any team out there in a given week. The Failclowns should have some motivation being it is against the Saints. But knowing the game is their last this season they probably already have their bags packed and will be in a hurry to get to that flight back to their off-season homes.

Speaking of the Rams, they would be our 1st round opponent as long as things go as needed. Wouldn't it be sweet to send them packing on their home field? Maybe on a "no call"?

Hopefully, we get McKoy & possibly Armstead back for Atlanta.

IMO the Falcons are a better overall team than what we saw vs Carolina.

We gotta improve upfront to give our guys (AK, Taysom, Ingram) a chance.

Divisional games are hard.

Has anyone heard anything about Ramcyzk? He hasn’t sniffed the practice field in seven weeks. I know last week was for Covid but it’s too quiet for my liking

If there were no other difference, Atlanta has skid britches, and much as we hate on him, he's a better QB than most of us want to admit.

I have a feeling the Rams will beat SF in a close game. Our game with Atlanta is a crap shoot IMO.

K_Major mentioned something about a week ago or so that Nick Underhill, I believe, had said his season was over. I haven't been able to find anything on Ramczyk anywhere and I search daily. Underhill's articles are behind a paywall so that may be where it is hidden.

The last tweet I read from Jeff Duncan is that Ramz season is over. Apparently, he's been dealing with a severe knee injury for over a month now.

IIRC he attempted to play in the Dallas game (week 13) but must have aggravated the knee. Based on the timeline, it's gotta be a severe MCL sprain. You could tell early on in the season, something wasn't quite right because he hasn't been the dominant RT we are accustomed to seeing.

Even if we "sneak" into the post-season, I don't think we'll see Ryan suit up at any point.

Unfortunate .

Underhill has slowed down on his articles on NOfootball.com as late but better believe I'll continue to share those as they become available.
