Yesterday some people were picking the Hags to win the west based on supposed ease of schedule, today I hear a show speculating who the rams will play in the nfc title game. The Rams are in the driver’s seat but it’s not a done deal, even though it’s the Rams who seem to have the easier remaining schedule although division games are unpredictable. The Hags must beat the rams or it’s over but Washington is no pushover.
What a difference in 24 hrs

Still basically comes down to week 16, but with this win and the win over the Jets next week, this made it so we clinch the division with a week 16 work OR a loss to Seattle, a win over AZ and a Seattle loss at SF in week 17
forty whiners +25000 to win the west?....Nice!!!
Its always possible but I think our team knows what's at stake and they all seem locked in.
After the effort we saw from them on a short week against the Pats, I don't believe falling victim to a trap game is very likely.
Shouldn't be, Jets have had their chances and anything is possible, but it's in Los Angeles so I expect the Rams to pound them.
When you can rely on the running game and defense, trap games are less likely. You tend to pull thru in the end even when you give the lesser team hope and confidence.
Jets can stuff the run. They are capable of giving us a scrum type game, the kind where either team can win.
But if the Rams are the team we hope they are they will take care of business. That Seattle game looks like the one that is for all the marbles. It will be a big one.

I think we should start Chuck Norris memes for Goff.
I feel like Tom Brady actually pulled that off against the Rams.
J-E-T-S can absolutely be a trap game. Jets D players feelin' relieved without Greg W. breathing down their necks might be a little more on fire to prove themselves. And....
...wait, is this the WINLESS 2020 J-E-T-S we're talkin' about???? suuuure, a trap game. Just take care of business Ram-os.

I can't think of a McVay led team ever having a "trap game". I could be wrong tho.
In 2009 the Lions lost to the Rams who would go 1-15. You never know! Ouch. Sorry.

let's hope it happens for them this week against the seafucks.

They are too close to the end of the season with too much on the line for the Jets to be a trap game IMO. If they lose to the Jets, then they deserve it. They would have to give it away on a mammoth scale to lose the Jets game.
IMO there is no looking ahead on this team. McVay and the leadership on this team won't let it happen at this point. I can see it if it was early in the season just not at this point. The offense needs to ramp up their game heading into the postseason. Much of that is on McConnell and McVay. They finally unleashed the run game and stayed with it for the most part.
That will force teams out of their all-out blitz packages, especially on early downs. If they don't back off one missed tackle and these RBs can take it to the house. McVay must be cognizant of overusing his RBs at this point. He needs to go back to his rotation because there is a whole lot of football still to be played and they will need all 3 in the playoffs.
They need to start playing Jefferson instead of Reynolds. Jefferson is faster and far more elusive. He's got better hands and gets open where Reynolds still struggles. Reynolds isn't likely to be on this team next year so it's time to give Jefferson his reps.
