The Los Angeles Rams are looking around the NFC standings on Sunday to see which games will impact their road to winning the NFC West and holding the number one seed in the conference. Here are the early games in Week that impact L.A.’s road-to-1, talk about the games as they’re happening in the comments section below.
The Rams are going to be rooting for the Falcons to win this game so that it knocks Seattle down a peg in the NFC West. Seattle and L.A. have identical 9-3 records with the rematch scheduled for TNF in 2 weeks.
However, if the Seahawks do win this game then it will improve the position of the first round pick that the Rams receive from Atlanta in 2026.
This is the only other early game that could directly impact L.A.’s playoff seed, but not by much. The Bucs lead the NFC South at 7-5, just a half-game over the Panthers team that beat the Rams in Week 13. Another Tampa win and a Rams loss would bring the Bucs within a game of the Rams record but L.A. still holds a head-to-head tiebreaker advantage.
