This game might possibly be a bit like game four of 99. (was it game four?) The rams were undefeated but
the 49ers loomed.
This year the rams are doing well, but Seattle looms.

The was the build up to the game, because of the 17 losses in a row.
But the Rams are 4-2 against Seattle. So not quite the same vibe.
Plus in 99 the 9ers were a paper tiger. Starting with the Rams they lost 8 straight and wen 4-12 that year.
Ironically, before the Rams game in 99, the 9ers were 3-1.
Seattle I don;t think is a paper tiger. They may not quite be what they were but they are no paper tiger I think.
But yes the HYPE before that game, combined with the 17 straight losses, made it a looming thing.
I actually think this year's Rams team is so much "in the process" of becoming good that they could stumble against Seattle and still have a good year, or win handily against Seattle and still lose games after.
