I may not have three but I do have one big concern

It is difficult to beat the same team in the Playoffs when you beat them earlier in the regular season. The Rams are well aware what went wrong in the first game in Seattle that ended up with us beating them.

You mean...don't miss FGs?

Don't have your Special Teams allow Rashid Shaheed to take one to the house?

Mike is 7-0 in same-season rematches.

Puka.

Puka.

I rarely complain about the refs, but the worst case scenario is something happens where the game is about them and not the players.

And Puka…..that douchenozzzle burned us the last time we played them and that was right in the middle of him doing all that social media nonsense and with Devonte Adams out. We all knew he was getting the ball and he still made plays. Need to stop that asswipe.
He has killed us. 19 for 300 in two games.

1. Our running game can't get on track and we have to throw a ton.

2. Walker and (add whoever subs in for Charbs) miss pass pro assignments and get Darnold pummeled constantly.

3. Our defense either can't get pressure on Matt or has trouble slowing down Puke-ah and Adams.

1. Running out of beer
2. Getting outcoached by McVay
3. An injury to Walker or Darnold.

Remember a past NFC Championship game 20 years ago when most people didn't think the Seattle D would have trouble stopping Steve Smith and the Panthers...dare I say some were afraid/worried about it....and what ended up happening?

I would be shocked if they didn't have a new/tweaked/different plan to at least slow Puke down.

My first concern is that the wams will be afraid to kick it to rocket shaheed

My second concern is that Matthew stafford will end up in a wambulance

My third concern and least likely because if you can’t score the refs can’t help, but it would be that the refs try to influence the ratings by trying to help the wams stay in the game

Holani is a nice running back but a Charbonet power back he aint. I could see our running game being well below par.
Darno instead of Darnold. This may be #1.
Rams have struggled their last two so this turns into their breakout game instead of their brokedown game.

*So long as our guys never lose confidence or hustle I believe we have the horses to get this done.

1. Losing the turnover battle AGAIN.

2. Red zone offense not finishing drives and settling for field goals.

3. Rams 13 personnel messing with us AGAIN.

For me it’s depth at running back. Not really a concern though. Walker has been the back I always wanted him to be which is healthy. Amazing how much a healthy Walker means to this team. People are gonna laugh but Velus Jones aside from the fumbling issues with the Bears is actually a poor man’s Charbonnet. He could be a factor along with Holani for depth. As far as the offense I think they’ll be fine overall. Even having Bobo back healthy it opens up another 3rd down option for Sam.
Also having Cross at a full go is another concern I had but he’s actually ready to rock. Defensively we are at a better and healthier place than last time we played the Rams and it’ll show. The Rams are no joke offensively they can run effectively and Stafford throws dots. If can disrupt his progressions and get him early it’ll be lights out for the Rams. The Hawks are going to the Super Bowl and then they’re going to hoist the Lombardi. Yes this is happening!!!

  1. Giveaways
  2. No pressure on Stafford
  3. Key player goes down with an injury
    1. I would be worried if we have to rely on Lock to win the game
    2. We need to establish the run which will be very hard without K9
    3. If Jones and Kight can't suit up we would be in trouble if Cross gets injured
    4. JSN is a superstar but I would be less worried if he got hurt than the above.

They can weather 1 or 2 turnovers but they shouldn’t have any turnovers if they simply execute. Macdonald said he complicated things last time. This time he’s just gonna let them line up and play.

Hopefully the only DarNO will be DarNO to Interceptions.
