We have already beat them once this season

I think there is a chance 

I'm going to choose to believe until the season is over!

When you make it, it's all a fresh start. We're all 0-0, and one thing I thought about today...it's not even about who the better team is. It's about who has a better day. I'm hoping we do both against them.

Bought my tickets about 30 minutes ago. I don’t care if we lose. It’s been 10 years for a home playoff game at BOA.

I'm in Phoenix but told my gf I've always wanted to go to a playoff game...who knows when we'll be back again

The key to the game is to put it on Bryce's (and the PASSING offense's) shoulders. Instead of the running game. That will keep the Rams defense guessing, open up run lanes for Rico/Chuba, and (assuming this gets the offense into a rhythm) keep the defense fresh through all 60 minutes. The defense needs to keep Stafford off balance all game long (so it’s important that the offense stays on the field and gives the defense enough time to rest and remain fresh). We keep talking about the run game needing to get better, but that will not happen by leaning more on running; it will happen more by passing. And stick with this strategy till the end. Stop treating Bryce with kid gloves. Stop playing it safe. Take chances. Give Bryce the reins. Open up the playbook for him. Even if we lose, we will at least have some answers to some of the muddled questions about the off-season and path forward. This was his 3rd year, for goodness' sake, how much longer are we going to experiment? And if we win and go to the next round, that just improves our chances, as the next team won't know what to expect from us either (right now, they know what to expect, which is why we lose). This makes it a win-win-win all around, not just for this season, but looking ahead to the next few years.

I agree with that. I just don't know if Canales will actually do this. He loves  running up the gut on predictable early downs and loves his cutesy screens and passes in the backfield. 

We only beat the Rams last time because of multiple turnovers from the defense and converting multiple 4th downs through the air.  

They'll have to be aggressive again if we want to win again. We simply do not have the talent to win against a Rams team that is vastly superior to us in talent and coaching. You also can't expect them to turn the ball over 3x again either .

Nice, I was contemplating but didn't feel like throwing down $250. I'm tempted to make a 4 hour drive to Charlotte and be with locals for the game though

Rams or 49ers both tough either way as teams, I think we'll get more home fans vs the Rams though so should be loud when they are on offense. LA people rarely give a poo about sports

This is very true, if it was the 49ers, it would be a heavy SF crowd, they travel well for playoff games.  But the Rams barely have home field advantage in LA usually, there shouldn't be a massive Rams contingent in town for the game.

They screwed around with the Raiders and Chargers so much in Cali that people in socal that actually like sports got all confused

      Hes Short as Hell but Man I Like This Kid

      Like I said before, I don't get the "only as a UDFA" sentiment, you have to keep following your board. Now if Pavia falls to what amounts to the supplementary UDFA section of the board, that's great, but if he's sitting at the top when you're picking day three (yes, I can't see him being drafted before day three), then you pull the trigger. Rounds 5-7 don't generally provide keepers anyway, you can use them for players that you want to take a closer look at that you may be able to develop.  Pavia may not translate to the pros. Nobody would bet anything of value on it. But, he was highly productive in college due to his play extension abilities, "body torque" mechanics on short and intermediate throws, and good accuracy on said throws. And, he has that dawg in him to be sure.  All that being said, Drew Allar will probably be able to be had on day three, and if it comes down to it--due to nothing but my prejudice against short, weak-armed QBs--I'd pick Allar.

      Yeah, receivers contracts are crazy, and it's probably not going to change. You almost have to take your swings--keep some picks at WR churning between rounds one through three in order to keep your costs down and give you options at contract time. Creating that value surplus appears to be more important at WR and all the premium positions than getting a non-premium position player who generally are just easier to replace as it pertains to value. The holy grail is to hit on a premium position late, but due to the gradually declining hit rate on days one and two that drops off a cliff day three, you basically have to get lucky.

      Very interesting indeed. It did make my head swim more. It said a lot, but it still didn't give any concrete answers. Kinda makes me want to pivot back towards a premium position though...
