Honestly, I'm prepared for another 5 win season. I certainly think there's a possibility the Rams could win as many as 9 games, but they would have to get very lucky and have the "ball bounce their way" more than a few times. My hope is that the Rams can be
mostly competitive in ALL the games and have a
chance to win. If we are witnessing blow outs, for me, I'm not sure I'll be able to watch that. The litmus test for me every season is the first 49er game. You can tell alot about a team when they go up against their arch rivals. If the team can't be up and ready to play those guys it's going to be another bad year. They need to be tough, compete and WIN or make it a nail biter. If it's a dominant 49er team rolling the Rams on defense and offense this will be much closer to a 5 win team. THAT game is the barometer.
