1. We can still run the table, have the Saints lose one to the Panthers or Falcons and still get home field advantage.

2. We are on bye and our players and coaches will get some well needed physical and mental rest.

3. Aqib Talib returns after the bye and will certainly help our defense get better.

4. Goff is a bonafide lite QB at this point and way ahead of last season. This season I feel confident that he will lead us to a win even when we are down.

5. I don't believe the Rams have played anywhere near their best game as a whole team an we are 10-1.

6. The toughest part of the schedule has passed.

7. Pete Carrol is now the "Jeff Fisher" of the NFC West resorting to a surprise onside kick that failed.

8. Ebukam looks like he might be coming around, Fowler's presence might be helping.

9. We beat a 9-1 team so maybe the talking bobble heads can stop saying the Rams haven't beaten anyone.

10. Even if the Rams don't get the #1 seed, we are nearly a mortal lock for the #2 seed which means we get a bye before having to play a playoff game.

But the rams didn't beat them. The chiefs lost it, more specifically mahomes gave them 5 turnovers. But he still threw 6 tds so that's ok. This proves the chiefs are better and the rams were just lucky. They got all those turnovers and could only win by 3. They still haven't beaten anyone.

Youre also forgetting Mahomes WRs we’re wide open running free while Goff had to beat tight coverage with his throws which clearly makes Mahomes the better QB

Do you even football bro

Good late morning post Happy ThankGiving Steve808:coffee:,

On your #2-#3-#5-#8-#9 (y). On your #1, I do not see this happening. Saints 15-1 for the season as the NFC #1 seed. Rams will have to go through the Superdome & the rapid ultra obnoxious fans & my most despised HC to get to the SB this season.:(

On your #4, I completely agree that Goff is ahead of where he was last year @ this time & yes Goff is capable of leading us to a win @ anytime. However the better defenses know by now & it's been eveident since last year pro bowl that Goff's Kryptonite is the inability to escape a solid pass rush & his poor ball terrible ball handling abilities under duress. If teams can constantly get pressure on Goff by getting to him .......turn overs & points are heading their way.:sadwalk:.

The way I see it, even if we have to play the Saints in their house, we got a good look at them when we played them. I gotta think that gives Wade an advantage devising a game plan to slow them down. We don't have to stop them. Just slow them down enough. You can pretty much pencil in 30 points or more with our offense. Trust me, as much as they say they aren't scared of anyone, they would rather play anyone else but us in a one and done game.
