Honestly Dave, where is the all of thee above?. It would be fantastic to beat all 5 because those are already more W's than what we've seen last season. But if I had to choose 1 it would be the Niners!

Can't really choose one. It all depends no what happens beforehand. I would say obviously the Whiners and Seahawks are the "most" important. But we've all seen the last 5 years what it means if you only win division games. If we lose to the Colts and Redskins badly the Whiners game is going to seem really important suddenly. If we get to the Seahawks and we're 0-4 we're basically already screwed.

So my coach answer is... the most important game is the next one we play.

This is like picking a favorite child. If it's implied that we would lose all the others, then I have to go with beating the 49ers.

The first game is the most important. Goff needs his first win and McVay need that first win. We have 2 guys pretty new to their role our QB and our HC. To get that first win of the season is a big confidence boost to both

I chose the colts, because without a win in week 1 they will not be able to finish the regular season 16-0.

Making 2017 a meaningless season.

I'm really not trying to imply This ^^ at all, I'm just wondering, which one would be most important to the Team! I want to Win them all and then some! I want us to go at least 9-0 before we lose our 1st game!

Game one...hell that first drive of the preseason with the first unit is huge....I remember when Kurt took over for Trent....think it was preseason game 3 or 4...I coulda swore he went right down and put in a TD....then I felt Vermeils words were true....we looked every bit as potent as with Trent Green....and led to a great start of a season...3 and outs....you watch what happens.
Plus the Colts don't have Luck even throwing passes yet...they won't be sharp.

In that case... You start the season off right with a win against the Colts.

First game is huge. Have to start the year well on offense. Then it shifts to the next games me and so on. One game at a time but we have to start strong.

I'm going Colts because,it is important that we get off to a good start.
Our guys could use some confidence after the way last year ended.
I am going to go ahead and say were 3-0 to start off the season
Our offense may be a little up and down in the first three,but will show glimpses
of what could be a dangerous group as the season progresses.Goff will make us proud.

Even with Luck the Rams should win this game with their D. And I'm expecting a the O to be much improved, so IMO a thrashing of the colts is eminent.

Agree. What happened last year was the 9ers doing what I always say as a Rams fan:
"If we only win 2 games all year, I want it to be vs the 9ers."

...but a win opening day would be GIGANTIC for the new regime and us, the fan base. Hope would be restored, plus it seamed as though the fisher teams never seemed ready in week 1 except the year we played the seahawks.

I picked the Colts for the team, the Whiners for my personal well-being.

The team needs that first win to get the spectre of losing out of their heads. A win is vital for the team to fully buy-in to what the new staff is selling. The confidence boost could be bigger than enormous!

Hopefully, they'll be rolling by the Whiners game and will absolutely steamroll those freakers!! That would benefit me tremendously here in the land of Whine!

I went with a win in game 1, just like all the gentleman said before me, confidenice builder for the whole team under a new coaching staff.
