The Cards could lose 2 maybe 3 games without him. Murray won't have his favorite receiver. It will be interesting to see how the Cards fare with him out.

The Rams have the opportunity to take the division. I think the Cards will lose at least one game, i.e. vs Dallas.

Yeah, gotta be MCL, no way do you come back from an ACL that quick.

It's horrible when players do things like that.

If they play for the Rams.

Otherwise, I couldn't give a fuck.

I don't want anybody to die, but the elephant in my particular room is that if opposing players go down injured I think 'fantastic'

I guess I'm just a horrible person.

I also suspect more people think this than care to admit it.

id rather have the 4 or 5 seed than the 3 seed. The 3 seed would probably play San Fran. We’ve proven inept against them over and over again. Much rather play Dallas although they look scary as well. The 1 or 2 seed is hard because the Bays boyh have an easy final stretch although we own the tie break over Tampa Bay.

I tore my MCL in Early July. I can’t have surgery and it still hurts daily. He better hope the surgery does it for him.

Kyle Shanahan’s 69ers own the Rams. They are a very dangerous team right now as their momentum is peaking. Also Jimmy G-string never lost to the Rams. So when the Rams face against the 69ers in the last game of the season, Rams gotta take out the 69ers’ momentum.

Cowboys Colts and Seahawks.

I expect the Cards to lose at least two of those.

But can we hold our own?

Seahawks Vikes Ravens Niners

I honestly do not see us losing to the Niners this time around. The Ravens are decimated by injury. Vikes withiut Theilen.

Our biggest question is Seattle with all these Covid no shows

I don't wish any harm on Hopkins, he's a helluva player and I've never heard anything to indicate that he's not a good dude.

But at the same time, I get what you're saying - if you are a Rams fan, you are definitely going to think about how this affects both them as well as the Rams chances moving forward.

Don't kid yourself - nobody else who's a fan of another NFC West team was lamenting the fact that Woods went down with an ACL and I'm sure they were thinking how it would benefit their respective teams.

I tore my mcl in highschool. I was fine in 2 months, no surgery. Players with strong leg muscles can recover fairly quickly from MCL tears, though if he’s having surgery is must’ve been more severe then mine was.

I think the improved rush D and rush O, and Jones dropping in coverage will go a long way against the 9ers. Time of possession shouldn't be as lopsided and I think we'll defend short passes in the middle better.

To everyone thinking that the Cards are likely to lose 2 of their 3 remaining games due to DHop going down, I'd have to wonder why? He has essentially been out since week 8 when he hurt his hamstring against the Fudge packers. During the stretch without him, they still beat the whiners easily (without Murray also), the shehawks (without Murray also), and the Bears (he played in this game but wasn't effective). He really wasn't very effective against us either (though he did drop an easy big catch). He has had zero 100 yard games on the year. Cards spread the ball out, so I think they are able to overcome this. Now if Green gets dinged up, they are without any real big WR's out there.

Cards are stating they fear he is out 2-4 months but think he might come back in playoffs? I got news for them, the Superbowl (in OURHOUSE) is less then 2 months from now. He done

I don't expect the Cards to drop more than 1 game but who knows. We need them to lose against the Seahawks to have a tying division record to have a chance, otherwise they'll most likely win the division.
 
I dont like seeing any player go down with injury. Would love teams to battle it out at full strength. Unfortunately this is a violent game.

9ers have been playing good ball since they beat us tbh. They're a tough out right now. So I could see them beating the Cards because the Cards look a lot like we did last year on defense, that being a team built to stop the pass but can't stop the run for shit.

Of course Garoppolo plays his best vs the Rams and will probably be his usual self when we need him to beat the Cards. But that said this year one thing he is doing right is he doesn't put up a lot of bad passes. Which complements Shanny's run game very well.

My hope is the Cards drop the Colts and 9ers games.

Cards are done playing the Niners though they do have Seattle to play.

But agreed on your take on the Niners and how they are playing.
