The Rams went from fighting for the top seed in the NFC to the fifth and sixth seed.
The Los Angeles Rams looked like the sure-fire No. 1 seed a few short weeks ago. But with one game left in Week 17, they have fallen to the sixth seed and third in the NFC West Standings.
The Rams travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons on Monday night. Kirk Cousins looks to win his third game in a row. If the Falcons are slightly competitive and care about this game, they should be able to score on the Rams.
This defense gave up 38 to the Seahawks last week and 34 to the Lions the week prior. In Week 13, the Panthers scored 31 against them. It’s not a good defense, and that’s been true for much of the season.
Whether the Rams win or lose, they’ll remain the sixth seed and be slated to face the Eagles. A win tonight and next week against the Cardinals, and the Rams could move up to the fifth seed. A loss to either and they are stuck in the sixth seed.
For much of the season, the Rams were the team that everybody thought would cruise to a Super Bowl win. Now, they’ll need to go on the road for multiple games in the playoffs.
