Definitely a good chance it could happen.

If all the faves win on Sunday, it'll be Cowboys vs Rams and Lions vs Packers.

But I'd imagine 49ers will rest everyone for most if not the entire game (and take the basically 2 weeks off) so Rams have a good shot to win.

It all depends on who Mcvay feels is the better match up. If he likes
Dallas he might rest his guys. If he likes Detroit. He plays his guys.

Rams are in the same boat as SF. Lots of guys are dinged up, a week
off would be beneficial for both squads.

If the Niners and Rams sit guys this is huge advantage to the Niners
because of Darnold. Has Wentz even suited up this year?

Lael Collins signs to Dallas practice squad. If he can give them anything
at Guard this could be a good signing.

They did announce in the stadium that #70 was eligible before they ran the play. The Lions didn’t correct them if that was wrong. To me this looks like a simple case of Dan Campbell trying to get cute and instead of confusing Dallas he confused the ref. They had plenty of time to correct the ref though and failed to do so.

[ATTACH]209555[/ATTACH Goff telling 68 what to do ]Attachment 209556 68 and 58 telling him. While 70 isnt where near him Attachment 209557 There is no way 70 reported in. This is him walking away from 58 and 68 to go tell the defense. Maybe there was confusion from the ref. But all of it looks terrible again. These are professional football players. I hate having to talking about refs. Teams can't be this stupid. Now they are saying this crew has been downgraded LMAO https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...4-nfl-playoffs

In the video put out by the league he clearly announces in the stadium that #70 is eligible. Also if you watch the video leading up to that picture you clearly see #70 raising his hand and pointing to his jersey as the ref is looking at him.

The ref announced that #70 reported. Yet when he lined up he was on the line of scrimmage. Then he was covered. The ref’s should have called illegal formation since they announced that #70 was eligible.
