The games that do matter will be fun to watch, however, and I'll be excited about the Buffalo/Miami game.

(31,798 posts)Armstead will probably remain on the I.L. I wouldn't be surprised if Trent Williams was benched and if Purdy played just one or two quarters along with Bosa, Kittle, Samuels, Warner, Greenlaw ...
49ers opened as +3.5 favorites at Caesars. My money would be on the Rams to cover this one.

(5,767 posts)I'd like to see the Rams make it to the NFC championship game, so we can do the same at home to them that they did to us a couple years back.

(31,798 posts)Rams are sitting QB Stafford, WR Cooper, DE Donald and a few others. Should feel a bit like a pre-season game.

(5,767 posts)We don't get the game in our area, and I don't think I'll bother streaming it on my laptop. Both teams are resting for the playoffs, and I wish the Rams well in their games. There's nothing I'd rather see than a Niner/Rams championship game at Levi stadium.
They knocked us out two years ago, and it's our turn to do it to them on our way to the Super Bowl.

I saw more Raiders than I wanted to this season as well. That was the Las Vegas factor, no doubt.
