Thanks to some help from the Dallas Cowboys defeating the New Orleans Saints on Thursday, the Los Angeles Rams have officially taken over the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoff picture, although now the goal becomes making sure they hang on to the spot
.
All it takes is a loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday for the Rams fall back to the No. 2 spot, but hopefully this won’t be an issue for Sean McVay‘s team when seeing how the two teams compare on paper.
Back in the offseason, Los Angeles was viewed as one of the top Super Bowl contenders in the NFC, and seeing them sit at 10-1 shows the defending NFC West champions have been able to live up to the hype.
