The Los Angeles Rams have a chance to clinch a playoff spot for the first time this season. That playoff spot would come in the form of the NFC West division title, but clinching in Week 17 would make for a much less stressful final week of the season. By already having a playoff spot locked up, the Rams could rest their starters in the final week of the season if seeding and opponent aren’t something they want to prioritize.
With both the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks losing last week makes clinching on Sunday much easier, but it will still take more than just a Rams win to lock up the playoff spot.
