Mike Sando, a senior writer for ESPN, spoke to a panel of four NFL coaches and evaluators and asked them to rank the 12 playoff teams — and the NFC West champion Rams came in at No. 7 on the list, just below their wild card weekend opponents.
1. New England Patriots (13-3)
2. Pittsburgh Steelers (13-3)
3. New Orleans Saints (11-5)
4. Minnesota Vikings (13-3)
5. Carolina Panthers (11-5)
T-5. Atlanta Falcons (10-6)
7. Los Angeles Rams (11-5)
8. Kansas City Chiefs (10-6)
9. Philadelphia Eagles (13-3)
10. Jacksonville Jaguars (10-6)
11. Tennessee Titans (9-7)
12. Buffalo Bills (9-7)
While they are seventh out of 12, this list technically ranks them fifth among the six NFC teams, above only the Carson Wentz-less Eagles. Even for a team that has no playoff experience, that seems a little bit harsh.

Wow. Lol. I guess the Rams don’t have much of a chance according to this panel of knuckleheads.
