3 concerns for potential Rams matchup with Eagles in NFC Championship

Here are three potential concerns for the Los Angeles Rams to consider if they happen to face the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship next Sunday.

Thanks to Saturday’s win over the Dallas Cowboys in the Divisional Round, the Los Angeles Rams are now one win away from earning a trip to the Super Bowl, as Sean McVay‘s team advanced to next Sunday’s NFC Championship game.

As for who the NFC West champions will face, well the Rams must wait until the conclusion of the Divisional Round during the final game between the New Orleans Saints and Philadelphia Eagles.

Coincidentally, Los Angeles ended up losing to both teams during the regular season, as it was safe to say these were each major wake-up calls for the Rams.

While it was New Orleans who handed Los Angeles their first loss of 2018, Philadelphia pulled off a major upset against the Rams in December in the first game started by Nick Foles went Carson Wentz was sidelined with a back injury.

Time will tell when it comes to seeing which team Los Angeles gets to face, but if they had their choice, a home meeting with Philadelphia would seem like their preference.

Making a statement on the road by defeating the Saints would help the Rams feel better about what happened in the regular season, but also getting to face the Eagles would mean Los Angeles gets to play the NFC Championship at home.

After discussing the potential concerns over having to play the Saints, it only seems fair to do the same about the Eagles. So in honor of Los Angeles advancing to the NFC Championship, it’s time to have a little fun by discussing some concerns if they were to end up facing Philadelphia next Sunday.
