No you're not wrong, I hadn't thought of that. Maybe the Rams haven't either lol. If they have, then the potential embarrassment of losing to the 5-10 Niners outweighs a potential home NFC championship game. That tells you how much teams are afraid of the Niners and JG right now. I hope we beat them 52-10.
I believe they are resting their starters because they ARE afraid. If they lost with their starters, it would prove they have no business being there, and next season they won't be expected to even be in the playoffs unless as a wildcard.
