Absolutely. Seattle's outcome has no bearing whatsoever on the Rams. But a Redskins outcome will directly effect the Rams.Quote:

I'm a Rams fan who lives in Seattle so I see things a little different lol. Even though I'd love to see the Skins lose and the Rams get a higher draft pick, I just can't bring myself to root for the Hawks. If I have to see those stupid "12th" man flags flying from car windows for another week longer, I'd probably off myself by jumping off the Space Needle.
I've gone back and forth on who I will root against harder in this game many times. I truly hate both of these teams and I only know that I will be miserable while watching this game and will be rooting for injuries above all else (I know they are just athletes and at the end of the day we are all people. I don't care. Fandom doesn't have to make sense).
If you want Seattle to lose, your putting your hatred towards them above your love for the Rams. Who cares if you hate the Seahawks. If they beat the Skins, the few moves up in the draft could possibly allow the Rams to pick up a key prospect who might not be there a few picks down the road.
I guarantee the people here rooting for the Skins would regret their decision, come draft day, if the Skins win and we miss out on a great prospect that fits our needs because of it.
Plus, im tired of hearing about RG3 anways.
I want to see Seattle win. Anything that benefits our team I'm all for. Not to mention the Seahawks represent the NFC WEST. Maybe the experts will finally catch on and give the NFC WEST some credit for a change!
I can NEVER wish for a Seabirds win! Even if the skins lose and we get a better pick. I just cant hear myself say "Go Seattle" OMG just seeing it gives me a headache!
The only problem I have with Seattle winning is I can't stomach Pete Carroll. Disliked him at USC, dislike him even more today. The difference in picks if Washington wins makes me lean towards the Hawks though. But when it's all said and done, I really don't care who wins in the playoffs if the Rams are not in it, with the exception of two teams.
Whiners and Patriots.
I want to see them both one-and-done.
Let the Shesquawks win it. They can enjoy their playoff victories while opening the Pandora's Box known as our quality draft position, especially if that player will make a name for himself and threaten the Shesquawks in the future.
As far as I'm concerned it's 'academic,' as is often said, incorrectly, in sports parlance. RGIII, Pierre Garcon and the Skins are going to annihilate the Seahags in Washington. I'd like to see them go all the way. I saw a post earlier about the Seahags winning and the Skins draft choices to which the Rams are entitled. Does the post-season count in terms of draft position? I didn't know that it did but perhaps it does.
:ram:
Yea, it absolutely does count. If the Skins win, our pick gets worse.....25th at best, 32nd at worst. If the Hawks win, our pick is somewhere between 21 and 24.Quote:

I want a Redskins loss, for the draft position.
I don't like the Seahawks, but a win for them also is beneficial for the reputation of the NFC West. I just don't want the Seahawks or Niners to win the Superbowl!
Does anybody know where we will be slotted for our second first round now?
No. 22. Our pick is No. 16.
i dont have a dog in the fight as far as i care let em kill themselves
figuratively speaking
