Maybe if we had lost in LA in September they would have:)
I don't think anything would have made a difference. Whether us and the Rams win or lose this weekend, the game is going to have huge implications for the playoffs for both teams. It's a football lover's dream, two arch rivals going head to head in one of the most intimidating environment in football with first place on the line for us, first place and perhaps HFA for the Rams (the Rams play Philly this Sunday, the Vikings have a tough game at Carolina). It's hard to draw it up any better than this game.
The whole key here is ratings, and the Rams have such a meager fan base that even if one of the two teams between the Cowboys and Raiders, two of the larger, nation wide fan bases, are still mathematically alive, it will draw more viewers than Rams-Seahawks. It's sad when you think of it because a big part of the justification for the Rams moving to LA was that it would bring the 2nd largest TV market in the nation back into the fold.
