PLAYOFF Seeding

[Merlin]

I'd like to get the Commodes in the Wildcard Round. So I'll be pulling for the Commodes to win, and the Packers to lose.

Also if we do get to the divisional round it would be nice to see the Lions in SoFi. So pulling for the Vikes over the Lions in the SNF game.

 

[Spider2YB]

Are the Rams locked into the 3 seed regardless of next week?
Or can we fall down to 4 with a loss and TB win?

Nope, if we lose we can get the 4th seed.

If Tampa wins and we win, we get the 3.
If Tampa wins & we lose, we get the 4.
If we both lose, we get the 3.
If Tampa loses and we win, we get the 3.


Tampa plays a really shitty Saints team btw

We’d still need to either win or for TB to lose to get the 3. If we lose and have the same record as TB, they will get the 3 seed via tiebreaker.

Tampa most likely.

It feels like we're headed for the 4th seed...

I honestly think it depends on how much of a crap Seattle players give about this week. They could be ready to mail it in. I low key didn’t expect us to beat SF in week 18 last year but Carson Wentz went nuts in the run game and we pulled it out.

Thx

I’d guess we don’t rest our starters next week then. We’ll try to win that game for sure. Hopefully the Seachickens play backups and it’s an easy win for us early on.

I actually think we do. I think McVay gives like 15 guys the week off.

I think McVay thinks we have a better shot at winning fully rested regardless of opponent.

I think the 4 seed will play either vikes or lions at home and then play the other on the road if all home teams win in the first round or home against the highest seed left if Philly loses.

The 3 seed gets Washington at home and then either at Philly or home against highest seed left.

 

[JBRam77]

I like the 4 seed better. We want to avoid going into Philly. I think we can beat Det/Minny at home and on the road. Then we can hope Tampa or Green Bay can knock off Philly for us

We won't play Philly in the Wildcard round since they are the 2 seed. Philly will play the 7 seed which will be GB or Wash.

Unless you are talking about the divisional round.

We are most likely getting the 4 seed and hosting Minn or Detroit.

Both teams will probably be 14 win teams, which will be the first time a 14 win team is a wildcard team.

Crazy things afoot at the special K.

Commodes or Packers for us.

 

[TexasRam]

Commodes or Packers for us.

If we get the 3 seed yes we play the 6 seed where Wash/GB will be.

If we get the 4 seed we play the 5 seed which will be Minn/Detroit.

I expect 4 seed since we will be resting starters and Tampa has to win and will beat NO.

I like the #3 seed path best, I think.

It really wouldn't surprise me all that much if our backups come out swinging and end up with an upset against the Seahawks.
Let LaFleur call the plays to mix it up from McVays trends. They will be planning for us and their vacations at the same time.

I could see Noteboom and Jackson playing better than expected. Corum and Rivers getting enough that Jimmy G can stay on schedule and just run the offense. Winning 5 of 6 against our division and riding a 6 game W streak into the playoffs would be the cherry on top for the regular season.

 

[Spider2YB]

I think the ideal path would be getting the 3 seed and drawing Washington. That secondary is AWFUL. Penix missed some wide open layups last night. They will get Lattimore back at corner but they still aren’t good on the backend.

If we rest starters like everyone in here says, I think the Hawks probably slaughter us. I believe that drops us to the 4th seed?
