Getting there period is so difficult. Getting there the year after losing it is 3X as hard.
My prediction this year was 11-5, 3rd seed, a win in the wildcard round and loss on the road in the divisional.
Hate to say it but the OL injuries they're seeing are more the norm around the league than an anomaly and the Rams need to restock their OL accordingly. Assuming Havenstein misses 2 starts they will have starting OL miss a combined 20 of 80 starts (Noteboom 10, Allen 7, Havenstein 2, Blythe 1). That's pretty typical. The 6th and 7th man on the OL really matters.
