By your definition, there are no "must win" games yet.
Later there are. But I think that's just a matter of perspective.
With two weeks to go in a season, it's easier to say "The Rams must win 1 of these last 2 (or whatever) to make the playoffs."
It's easier to see then, because the variables have been greatly reduced.
But maybe if they win in week 4, then they don't need 1 of those last 2.
They might be already in.
So every game is "must win" and no game is "must win"
What I'm pointing at is that I still expect the Vikings, despite their current record, to be real contenders at the end.
For playoff spots and for HFA. Especially if they win this game.
Not only that, but coupled with last year's victory by them, it might affect the confidence of these two teams when next they meet.
So a victory against them tomorrow does a lot more for the Rams than just get another W.
It might, maybe, help to actually eliminate Minn entirely.
And at the least, force them to come to LA for a playoff game.
To me, that's not "must win", but it sure is "we better win!".
Ok, now my nitpick is over. LOL.
Thanks for understanding.
