This IMO is THE game we need to win. Rams go to 4-1 if we lose and Seattle to 2-3. If we win we're on top of the division again (tiebreaker) but this is too important to lose.

Seattle has lost the last 3 times we've been away at the Rams, time to break that curse and this is the season it needs to get done.

Apologies ahead of time for what is likely many drunken rants and flip outs in about 5-6 hours. You know deep down I love you all.

Yep bro, lots of love in this forum.
For me I don't see it as a must win. I truly hope for victory but we aren't in sync quite yet. We are a little wounded as well losing our #1 LT, #1 RB, and #1 RDE.
A road win is important but not vital in success for the season.
I'm tempered, anxious, yet mentally planning for some disappointment. It will all be ok.

Is it a "must win"? I'm not sure. It sure feels like it in some respects, doesn't it. I think the Hawks could still win the division even with a loss because I have doubts that the Rams offense can keep up this pace.
I sure would like to see the defense shut down Gurley and the other weapons and hopefully Goff gets rattled. Any win would be nice, even an ugly one like the SF game. Winning in the div is always huge. I also hope that they start with the up tempo and get the Rams defense on their heals a bit. The Rams have given up a lot of points so far and I hope that trend continues.
A big win for the Hawks could be a great boost going forward. The whole team needs to get it rolling. If they can dominate today and win big there, the Hawks turn some heads and become that team that scares people again. Gonna be a tall order today though. This Rams team has good coaching and is a lot different than Fisher's teams.

My belief is all division games are must wins. I think our offense will be fine but the D needs to pressure the hell out of Goff and limit Gurley to minimal damage.

The OL needs to step it up. It won't be easy against a good Rams D-line. But the Rams are surprisingly poor against the run.

WOW... The Hawks dodge a bullet... They basically get rewarded for sucking on that drive... We'll take it though...

I dunno.. that seems like a shitty call to me. He clearly stepped out and lost the ball at the 1 yrd. line. All for my Hawks, but that seems fishy.
