Over the next 4 weeks, we play 3 teams that lead their divisions in the NFC. Two of them are at home. I feel, in the next 4 weeks, we need to go at least 3-1 to be considered a legit Super Bowl contender.

I’d be happy with 2-2. Still in good shape if they split those games.

If we go 2-2, we would not be a Super Bowl threat from the NFC.

Jack, if the Rams split the next four games they could still finish 12-4 which would probably make them NFC West champs and get them a first round by in the playoffs. They would certainly have a decent chance to go to the Super Bowl.

The way the Saints and Eagles are playing, there is no way we are getting a 1st round bye. They probably will finish 13-3 at worse. We can’t beat the Saints and/or Eagles in theie stadiums.

Right now the Rams are playing just as well as the Saints and Eagles. Those teams have just as much reason to fear the Rams as the Rams have to fear them. And the Rams can beat the Saints and Eagles in their buildings. If the Rams have to travel in the playoffs it won’t be the end of the world.

I dont remember the last time a Ram schedule played out this way — three division leaders clustered closely in the second half of the year. All meaningful games.

Couldnt be more fun.

Anything can happen. Three close wins. Three close losses. A gazillion other scenarios.

Looks to me, like the Viking game would be the best chance at a win. I just dont take Keenum seriously. Maybe i should.

I don’t know if I can take the stress.

This is why one should never wager on sports. It changes the experience.

Anyway. Go Rams.
