Yes they can, though I wonder how the 49ers and Seahawks would play that game if the Rams were to have beaten Seattle and have the division locked up. Solid chance one or both teams rest players.
Honestly, this is the best case scenario for us.
Yeah I dont think we win the division. Having to play LAR and/or SEA in the playoffs though is gonna be tough. Those are the only 2 that scare me but at the same time should just be grateful if we make it to the playoffs despite the major injuries we have.
The good news is the odds of drawing either one in round 1 is pretty low. I think second-best case scenario for us other than the 1 seed is we at least pass one of them and finish 2nd in the division. That way, we almost certainly don't play either one in the wild card round and there's a decent chance they have to play each other in the divisional round (though that would guarantee we have to get through one in the NFC Championship).
