For most of this season, it has looked like the Los Angeles Rams are on track to make another Super Bowl run. Matthew Stafford is playing at an MVP level with two of the best receivers in the league at his side, and defensive coordinator Chris Shula has constructed a unit capable of shutting down even the most dangerous offenses.
But with just one more game to go in the regular season, the Rams have found themselves in a difficult position.
Based on the current NFC playoff picture, Los Angeles is set to face a seemingly impossible gauntlet on its way to reclaim the conference title.
