This game has me more worried than any other game so far this season. In 2011 when a 15-1 Packers juggernaut rolled into the playoffs Zero mentioned that he thought the 9-7 Giants would be the toughest game for the Packers because of how they matched up, applying pressure by only rushing 4. This Rams team can do the same thing. We can counter with a better running game than in 2011 which will help and we've faced good pass rushers already this year but one thing is different with the Rams: they can push the pocket up the middle so QB1 doesn't have escape lanes. Also, Foles is the kind of middling efficient quarterback that we let have good games against us (See Kyle Orton). Finally, Gurley scares me. Has the speed to turn the corners even if we jam up the middle of the line. We've stopped Lynch, Charles and Hyde but I don't think those teams have very good offensive lines. I don't know about the Rams.
I could see this game going either way.
