    I bold games where I think it’s anywhere from can to will win it. That’s not a strict “win prediction.” I am not predicting 14-2. But I do think they will be in most games, and that 10-6 is possible.

    If a game is not bolded, it’s because I don’t think an offense that’s still formative to the extent this one is gives them a big chance in that particular game. But in the end that means I only wrote off 2. Also, I have never seen them win a game in the bye week, so that stays unbolded too.

    Week 1: vs. Seattle Seahawks (12-4, 1st place NFC West) | Noon
    Week 2: at Washington Redskins (4-12, 4th place NFC East) | Noon
    Week 3: vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (11-5, 1st place AFC North) | Noon
    Week 4: at Arizona Cardinals (11-5, 2nd place NFC West) | 3:25
    Week 5: at Green Bay Packers (12-4, 1st place NFC North) | Noon
    Week 6: Bye
    Week 7: vs. Cleveland Browns (7-9, 4th place AFC North) | Noon
    Week 8: vs. San Francisco 49ers (8-8, 3rd place, NFC West) | Noon
    Week 9: at Minnesota Vikings (7-9, 3rd place NFC North) | Noon
    Week 10: vs. Chicago Bears (5-11, 4th place NFC North) | Noon
    Week 11: at Baltimore Ravens (10-6, 3rd place AFC North) | Noon
    Week 12: at Cincinnati Bengals (10-5-1, 2nd place AFC North) | Noon
    Week 13: vs. Arizona Cardinals (11-5, 2nd place NFC West) | Noon
    Week 14: vs. Detroit Lions (11-5, 2nd place NFC North) | Noon
    Week 15: vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-14, 4th place NFC South) | Thursday Night Football
    Week 16: at Seattle Seahawks (12-4, 1st place NFC West) | 3:25
    Week 17: at San Francisco 49ers (8-8, 3rd place, NFC West) | 3:25

    I agree with that. Those are the only
    two games I think are out of reach.

    If they can be 3 and 3 after game six,
    I think they have a Most-Excellent chance
    at ten and six. And i think 3 and 3 is
    realistic. My own wild-speculation is
    they beat Washington, the Cardinals,
    and the Browns in that first six-game stretch.

    After that, maybe they get Gurley and Tre going
    and the OLine gels and things improve.

    I’m not sure at Arizona is very winnable. Not if Palmer is healthy.

    That 4 game stretch of at Baltimore, at Cincy, AZ, and Detroit is a killer. I would be elated if they could go 2-2 against that group.

    Well I think a team thats turned the corner
    and is on the rise, is gonna start looking
    better than a .500 team.

    And I think this is the year that happens.
    Despite the OLine issues.

    Because you live in the frosty netherworld of Vermont, this makes you, of course, and quite naturally, a Buffalo fan. Naturally, as this is only to be expected, you therefore look upon the Rams with barely concealed dismissive rage. I get that. No one is criticizing, this is all to be expected.

    BUT I think it may have SOMEWHAT colored your ability to accept the fact that the Rams are going 14-2 this year.

    It happens. No big.

    They will have to win a shootout in that Pittsburgh game.

    That offense is fantastic and they’ll have Bell back.

    I believe that is the best offense they will face this year–even better than Green Bay and Detroit.

    Palmer has not looked good in pre-season. They can beat the Cards at least once and maybe twice.

    I just have to see them come out, cut out errors, not beat themselves and play tough and together. Until I see it, I’ll remain a bit pessimistic toward the season. But the Rams certainly have the talent to compete in all their games–especially if the O-line improves.
