Remember all these teams that start blazing hot every year? Rarely do they keep it going into December. Let's wait and see. I just see hype and playoff heartbreak for these rams, similar to what happened to us during the harbaugh era.
Yeah, we've seen it happen plenty of times. But it also allows them more room for error down the road. The 1999 Rams won their first 6 on the way to a Superbowl. The Eagles were the hottest team last year until the Wentz injury. But the good start allowed them to retain home field and ended up champs. Football is a fickle sport. If something like key injuries happen and a team loses its momentum, it can be hard to get it back even if everyone returns healthy.
