Rams Week 12 rooting guide: Who should L.A. pull for on Sunday?

There are four big games in the NFC playoff race on Sunday.

Patriots (9-1) vs. Cowboys (6-4)

Does this one really need to be explained? As hard as it may be to root for the team that just beat the Rams in the Super Bowl, Los Angeles should hope the Patriots win on Sunday afternoon. The Cowboys and Eagles could be tied at the end of the day if Dallas loses and Philly wins, which would put both of them either tied with the Rams (if they lose) or one game behind.

The Eagles and Cowboys are fighting for an NFC East crown, but the loser still has a chance at a wild-card berth. It’d be best if Dallas lost, as well as the Eagles.
