there are too many teams with records that are very close meaning a lot of teams so far are still in a playoff possible season. I don't think the panthers are going to totally empty the roster, they need some quality to start from going forward.
IMO the RAMS need to cinch that belt up and get something out of their roster this time, the staff needs to do some work on the building. There may be some guy out there on the cheap in other spots, an older guy for help in rushing the passer, maybe a RB, but overall they need to do this from the inside for the most part. They just don't have anything, $5 million in the safe...who's that for OBJ? If it is he isn't doing anything for a few weeks at best, by then our season will already be going which ever way it is.
They can't get too far if at all from the whiners as we will already have played them for the season, you'd need to rely on them falling off.....A lot of parity this year means also very little leeway in your losses to make the playoffs.
