Rams probably sitting this one out
 

Smart move actually. At 4th seed, McVay knows he will get the Panthers, and then the nick foles led Eagles. Least path of resistance to an NFC win.

Though I'm not sure he's thinking that a 3 win is hard in the NFL, so Atlanta might be easier for us, and Vikings play in a Dome, which we are good at, instead of the 10 degrees Eagles stadium. Sounds like he's trying to deliberately avoid the Saints and Vikings.

Thanks P.

I believe that each team in each individual year means more than statistical precedent.

I have to after '09.

Re: Rams probably sitting this one out
 

np not stats though, smart because he knows we and Vikings have to fight for it and gives his team a bye week before playoffs.

This can backfire, especially with a young team. Gurley certainly doesn't look like he needs any rest.

um ok :dunce:

Re: Rams probably sitting this one out
 

Shows that the guy is looking ahead, and that he doesn't see both Philly and Minn getting upset. Intriguing at the least, and maybe even smart.

Helps us, so I like it

let's not forget we lost 3 straight in 2009, sitting our starters in the last week

Re: Rams probably sitting this one out
 

That was different. Saints didn't sacrifice seeding to sit anyone.

Re: Rams probably sitting this one out
 

Rams cant get a 2 seed
Dont risk your players
You have the division
A locked up home game
If you do lose and Saints or Carolina win
You get the 4 seed

4 seedmatch up well with the Eagles

Here is a real fun scenario
If the Saints win, Rams lose
Saints get either falcons or seahawks in the dome
Advance to Vikings
Beat Minnesota - if Eagles lose
You host the ncfcg

That would be a fun way to run the tables

They're gonna be sitting out the super bowl too after we knock them out.
