Since realignment...
NFC East had all 4 teams at .500 or better in 2008.
AFC South had 3 10+ win teams and an 8-8 team in 2007.

If rams win next week, will they be the first .500 team to finish last in their division?

In terms of value, even if RG3 comes around, if the Rams get a franchise QB this year, they win the trade.
They'll probably go with the best OT or Clowney.

No, but I think we'd have the highest winning percentage ever if the rams go 8-8 though.

If you don't think the Rams stand a chance check out the box score from October 28th. It was a darn close contest. Statistically, the Rams owned Seattle.

NFC BEST!
Yep, they got alot of ammunition. Thankfully, we got 6 picks in the first 3 rounds so we're loaded too.
baalke and harbaugh better be on their s**t during the draft. our team is pretty stacked and all our injured draft picks should make an impact next year but i think we should be very aggressive in the draft to plug the few holes we still have. go get a top receiver (watkins would be awesome!) a high end CB, a guard in case they cant afford to keep iupati, a strong safety and another receive or two and were stacked

not a long time ago this Division was won with a 7-9. this year the last ranked team of this division will have the same record or better...crazy.

Thanks, someone actually looks it up, so we don't have to read inane speculation.

Our most glaring need right now is another topflight receiver. Baalke has to hit it out the park drafting a stud at WR, we need someone to either compliment Crabtree in the future or possibly replace him if he chases after dollar bills. Point blank, this team cannot afford another AJJ level failure. Trade up for Sammy Watkins or Lee if we have to.

Love that idea. I think we just need that superstar WR, CB, DL, C/G and another Eric Reid to pair up with Eric Reid and we'd have that dynasty we expect. I'm still paranoid Whitner will choke on us and take a bad angle when it counts.

rams can turn it on any game, they killed the colts and saints, they are like jeckel and hide team, they can look so dominant some weeks and suck the next. lets hope they bring out that monster this week.
