In my opinion, playing scared would be a much worse decision.
Unless that team is my beloved Tarheels. I still feel like I need to take a shower after seeing him on our sideline. It’s just not not right!
I suppose and hope that he didn't push the players too hard in practice. Last week, the team overall, with emphasis on the defense, looked leg weary. The Rams need to build momentum going into the playoffs. Go out and establish dominance over a weaker Cardinals team and keep rotating players in on the defensive line.
it's not like players are not going to get injured form here on out. we have to get through this game then the wild card game and the rest to the Superbowl. who's it going to be and when. It will be interesting to see how the injuries play out for all the teams. I just hope the rams are done with them.
I think he is approaching this game as a must win just in case it means something. If SF wins tonight, I think you’ll see the starters come out of the game after the first qtr.
It's more than that in my book. I think McVay should play the starters because they need to get focus after 2 straight losses. Injury is is always possible but getting their "RAM MOJO" back comes from playing. The exception is Adams with the hammy, rest that until the playoffs.
Hopefully, when the playoffs start Dotson, Jackson, Higbeast, Adams, Lake, McCollough, Fiske and others will be 100 and the team full strength.
I'm pretty sure practices will also be HIGH INTENSITY to sharpen everyone up!!!
This is some truth. It's just like playcalling, where if it works he's a genius. Otherwise it's torches and pitchforks.
They’ve played like shit. They need a tune up game to get back on track

Yeah, I'm on the can't-play-scared train.
McVay has done both and it doesn't work well, the other way. I understand resting starters a little bit for optimal health. But we see it during the course of games, and it happens with seasons too: Momentum is a strange but true reality. (Only wish it carried the Rams to a win Monday once that Momentum swung their way)
This game, or at least the first half, HAS TO be about setting things right on all three sides of the ball.
Destroy the cardinals. We aren't afraid of the eagles, but playing Tampa or Carolina is still the preferred path to advance. Just like the superbowl 56 season, the whiners went to green bay and beat them (did our dirty work) then came to LA where we beat them.
