Even though the race for the No. 2 seed in the NFC was closer than it should have been, the Los Angeles Rams were able to hang on to a first-round bye over the Chicago Bears, meaning Sean McVay’s team will have to be a little patient to see who their Divisional Round opponent is.
As frustrating as it was to watch the Rams miss out on the top seed in the conference after the New Orleans Saints made a statement about being the team to beat in the NFC, Los Angeles should still love their chances of making a serious run at the Super Bowl.
