I agree, with the caveat that our OL can't be a MASH unit, but...the above is a big ask ATM. When WILL KM be playing again? Even when he's back, will he be MVP KM or will he be struggles playing injured KM? The latter isn't a good player, from what we've seen. I'm all kinds of nervous and worried that we'll hit another huge slide mostly because of the KM injury. It's not because of one game, although I of course reacted badly to that one game. It's our star QB. If he's not back and healthy enough to be himself, I don't care who else we have--we're toast.
Rams plays Green Bay next week. Win - Win for us.
Seahawks game is huge in that context which is why I think Kyler and Nuk will be back.
We could, but then we'd be 1 and done, like with Lindley.We could put Blake Bortles in at QB and still crawl our way into the playoffs.

Desperately hope youre correct, the middle of this season so far has an incredible amount of upsets and ( sadly ) injuries for many teams.I’m amazed at some of the koolaiders jumping off the team. Other than watt none of our injuries are season ending and it’s only week 10 in a 17 game season. We have 7 weeks, including our bye, to get everyone back, and back to full health, before the playoffs even start. That’s plenty of time to keep the super bowl aspirations alive.

But we are going to be the following players back:Desperately hope youre correct, the middle of this season so far has an incredible amount of upsets and ( sadly ) injuries for many teams.
If we beat Seattle we move to 4-0 in the division. I think that means we can only be tied on the division record front if we get there.Rams plays Green Bay next week. Win - Win for us.

HUGE GAME.
I'd risk Kyler at 80 or 95% personally knowing that we have the bye then the Bears on the road. That could give him 3 more weeks off after that game if needed before Monday night at home versus the Rams.
At some point, you need to go out and play the damn game ( or LET him go out and play the damn game ).This game is huge on so many levels:
-Keeping Seattle out of the playoffs
-Staying ahead of the Rams so that even if we lose against them on Monday night we could still be ahead of them if our records are tied
-Keeping up with GB for the 1st round bye
This game is everything!!! Free K1!!!
Excellent point about the division tie-breakers. We’d be very close to clinching tie-breakers over the Rams should we beat Seattle. Due to H2H, Division, and Common Games records, the only way I see for the Rams to then reclaim the tie-breaker advantage would be for:If we beat Seattle we move to 4-0 in the division.

- Cards lose to LAR and SEA, but beat Dallas
PLUS
- Rams beat SEA and SF, but lose to Baltimore
The Dallas/Baltimore outcomes would be necessary to force a tie in common games (our loss to Carolina hurts less since it was a non-common game). I believe it is only in this scenario (should we win this weekend) would the Rams win a tie-breaker over us, winning on conference record.
Given that he's the one who has to solve the problem that doesn't fill me with confidence!xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
Have there been any timelines talked about with Chase Edmonds' ankle? All the talk has been about Kyler's ankle as you'd expect
