Its Seattle for me. If Forbes does not come though we lose that game. The D is real, you can see it.
Then you have the Eagles, whom we have lost to at least 3 times in a row. They are bullies and can take you off your game.
Indy should have beat us. That moron does not try and put the ball over the line, we lose. But, Jones is remembering he is Matt Jones so cracks are starting to show.
The Broncos ? They do not look as good as their 9-2 record shows. Nix is nice, but I do not trust him. We roll them up IMO.
We are not a perfect team.
But, playing better right now than anyone else in the game.
I think McVay has matured to the best coach in the NFL and he will keep our guys ready.
Right now we have Matt Fucking Stafford at QB and that guy has total freaking control of what is going on. He is on fire and its something to behold.
I like our chances.
 
Denver - they also have a great defense that gets insane pressure. The silver lining here is that if we're playing them, we're at least in the SB.

Philly - Same reason as above. I think we can have bad days against teams with great defenses
I agree with this premise. Rams aren’t going to lose a big game because the defense falls off a cliff and gives up 40 pts all of a sudden. Maybe a lot of yards but not points.

If the Rams stumble it’ll be because the offense gets stymied and has to work hard just to score 20 pts. Stafford will be hit and pressured and/or the run game gets nothing. First downs will be at a premium.

We’ve seen that before.
 
Really, any team they have to play. They are on a run and let's hope they actually get better as it seems that is what's happening. Once we get to 1 and done they better all be on the same page and healthy. Then maybe we are fearing no one and total respect for the other teams game will get us a superbowl. Oh yeah, and some luck too. Go, Rams!

I don’t see any cupcakes. Any of Detroit, Philly, Seattle, Green Bay, Chicago, or San Francisco could be tough. Still, the Rams would have to be favored over any of those teams. Would be nice to be at home too - especially if the home crowd really gets it going for this team the way they should.
Rams have figured out SF and should easily beat GB or any NFC South team. CHI is hard to figure out but SEA/PHI/DET would be tough outs.
 
Whiners.
Because they are them and they match up well with the Rams and the familiarity means most games can go either way.
Darnold has a Shula problem.
Shula has a Shanny problem.
I hope a combo of Detroit, Green Bay or fill in the blank can keep them out of the playoffs.

If we get the number 1 seed, I’d say there’s a pretty decent chance we play Seattle in the divisional round at home. And I think that will be our single toughest game including the Super Bowl if we are lucky enough to make it that far.

Unless they take a step back and lose a couple surprising games, they are going to be the 5th seed heading to either Carolina or Tampa. I like them in both matchups. I know Tampa got them in Seattle earlier in the year and there could be an upset in the 3-6 or 2-7 matchup that changes things, but Seattle @ LA in round 2 seems like the most likely scenario to me.
 
I hear you. And having all home playoff games would be great, but I honestly think Stafford doesn’t give f%@k where he is playing. I trust him in any environment.

It’s not him that I’m concerned about. Fumbles, drops, fatigue…those are all aspects that seem to pop up more when warm weather teams travel to the cold cities in winter

Oh, no doubt, there is always the unexpected, especially given KW track record for fumbles. But there is something about this squad that feels special. They were a blown blocking assignment away from the NFCCG in the snow at Philly last year and this team is better than that team (IMO).

Defense is needed in the playoffs, as well as limiting mistakes. All competition in the playoffs is good.

Eagles, I can see winning the SB. Currently they are the only NFC that I see winning 3/4 against top notch opponents apart from the Rams.
They are the only NFC team that I worry about.

That said, any given Sunday
