    Jared Goff, Todd Gurley, Andrew Whitworth and John Sullivan among the Rams who won’t play Sunday, Sean McVay said.

    Aaron Donald also out Sunday.

    Sean Mannion, on starting against the 49ers: “I’m super excited. It’s my first chance to start an NFL game. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime. It’s something I’ve wanted for my whole career, my whole life.”

    McVay said he “doesn’t necessarily know” that he will start watching tape this week on Rams’ 4 potential first-round opponents. Translation: He probably has 4 TVs in his office showing their games 24/7.

    The Rams have only six players on their current roster who have played in a playoff game, fewest of any NFL team

    Todd Gurley is the 1st RB to be named NFC Offensive Player of the Week in consecutive weeks since the award began in 1984

    Rams have promoted OL Aaron Neary and OLB Garrett Sickels from the practice squad. DB Marqui Christian has been placed on IR, the team announced. LB Kasim Edebali was waved on Tuesday. TE Henry Krieger-Cobble and CB Taurean Nixon added to practice squad @CVRamsClub

    “I feel good. I don’t feel banged up or anything, but a week of can never hurt.” — Jared Goff on sitting Sunday @CVRamsClub

    “We don’t want this to be misconstrued… We’re going out there to win the game. It’s not a preseason game. It’s not anything to be taken lightly.” — Jared Goff on Sunday @CVRamsClub

    Cooper Kupp (knee) joins Mark Barron (Achilles) and Rodger Saffold (oblique) among those that would have missed today’s practice via injury.

    Jared Goff’s touchdown-to-interception ratio: 4.00.
    Tom Brady’s touchdown-to-interception ratio: 3.75.
    This is a real thing that happened this season.

    Rams handed out team awards today. RB Todd Gurley was named MVP (Daniel F. Reeves Memorial Award), LT Andrew Whitworth was recognized for his leadership (Carl Ekern Spirit of the Game Award) and WR Cooper Kupp was their rookie of the year (Carroll Rosenbloom Memorial Award).

    Rams fans seemingly have an issue with resting starters due to possibility of facing Saints/Panthers on road to win NFC. I think it’s the right move. Lots has to happen for that scenario to take place, but there’s no doubt a lot of Rams players will benefit from a game off.

    McVay said players close to reaching contract incentives who are sitting out Sunday because of coaches decision would be taken care of.

    ==================

    I dont like football awards named after owners or bizness-suits.

    It makes me gag.

    I mean ten years from now are we gonna hear about Goff winning the Demoff Award
    for Goffs ability to weasel out of tackles?

    Name the damn things after grid-iron-Players.

    Saint Crispin agrees with me.

    w
    v
    “…For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
    Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
    This day shall gentle his condition;
    And gentlemen in England now a-bed
    Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
    And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
    That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.”

    #Rams might be the best backfield screen team in NFL. Between them and the #Saints.

    Gurley has had tremendous season, but he’s often been the beneficiary of play designs that win. No way is he more valuable than Le’Veon Bell.

    #Rams have been outstanding with tight red zone rub/pick designs this year.

    Matt Longacre a notable loss for the #Rams. He’s been an excellent rotational piece at DE. One of the NFL’s best second effort finishers.

    #Seahawks didn’t do enough to make Wilson’s job easier. Too many spread isolation routes against a #Rams back seven that was dominating in man and zone.
