Rams need to go 6-2 against @Seattle, Arizona, @Houston, Washington, @Minnesota, Philly, San Fran, and @Dallas.

I definitely agree that this is a much improved conference. Last few seasons it has been pretty much Philly's conference, now it seems that there's a lot of teams all competing for those playoff spots. The NFC Wildcard race this season should be very thrilling and down to the wire.
I'm not saying the Rams can't win this game @ Seattle. I know they can. And I'm not one to call any divisional game anything less than high priority, which is why I think both teams will come out firing. I only give Seattle the advantage based on home field and recent play when faced with big games.
Likewise STL has had a few key victories while missing some starters.
I think you're right. Realistically 10-6 is what a team should aim for to be in the playoffs, especially with such good wildcard contenders (ATL, CAR, All of the NFC East)
Can you beleive the Eagles are at the bottom of their division at 4-4? The last game of the season looks to be huge for STL. Very likely that both you guys and Dallas will be hungry and fighting for a wild card spot.
