According to a recent survey on the team Twitter page, most Los Angeles Rams would prefer to see the Seattle Seahawks in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.

It’s amazing to think around this time next weekend, the Los Angeles Rams will be participating in the 2018 NFL playoffs, although whether they end up playing Saturday or Sunday has yet to be determined. Still, it doesn’t matter which day the Rams play on because at the end of the day, the most important factor is they will be participating in the playoffs for the first time since the 2003 season.

After only winning four games all of last year, Los Angeles was expected to go through at least a year or two of rebuilding under first year head coach Sean McVay when looking at all of the adjustments the team would be going through. Instead, the players wasted no time buying into what their new coach was selling, and as a result, the Rams head into January as one of the most dangerous teams to face, especially with all of the weapons they have to work with on offense.

As for who Los Angeles will end up facing on Wild Card weekend, all of that will be determined by Sunday night since McVay’s squad will see one of four teams still in the hunt for a Wild Card spot. But thanks to a survey conducted by the actual Rams Twitter page, it turns out a majority of fans would love to see the Seahawks for a third time this season.

At the time of this article, the Seahawks were leading the way at 44 percent, while the Atlanta Falcons were sitting in a comfortable second place at 31 percent. When looking at how things turned out for Los Angeles back in Week 15 when they flat-out embarrassed Seattle on the road in front of their own fans with a 42-7 win, it’s easy to understand why fans would want to face Russell Wilson and company.

Between their weak offensive line along with a lack of support in the ground game, even if the Seahawks end up squeezing into the postseason, chances are they will end up with an early exit, which is also another reason why Rams wouldn’t mind seeing their NFC West rivals. Either way, at least Los Angeles can relax for the most part on Sunday since no matter what happens, the team will be in great shape ending up in the No. 3 or No. 4 spot in the NFC playoff picture.
