Against all odds and even losing their home-field advantage, the Los Angeles Rams destroyed the Minnesota Vikings in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs. While fans and critics were amazed to see quarterback Matthew Stafford taking control of the field, there’s someone who is convinced that the Rams will represent the NFC in the Super Bowl: Dan Orlovsky.
Being utterly impressed by head coach Sean McVay and Stafford once again, the ESPN analyst crowned them the most dangerous team in the NFL. Orlovsky’s over-the-top praises for Stafford-led Rams aren’t new and this time he bolsters his argument by referencing their successful postseason history.
In the latest episode of ESPN’s First Take, Orlovsky emphasized the successful history shared by head coach McVay and quarterback Stafford, particularly in winning the Super Bowl and representing the NFC. Their previous achievement in high-pressure situations provides a strong foundation for their ability to do it this season, especially after their spectacular first playoff victory.

Additionally, Orlovsky didn’t hold back in his praise for running back Kyren Williams by calling him a “walking touchdown.” He also commended the Rams’ defense for their improvement, particularly in the wake of losing Aaron Donald to retirement.
Matthew Stafford-led Rams prepare for challenging conditions against Jalen Hurts-led Eagles in playoffs
After the solid victory in Wild-Card, the Rams are now advanced to the Divisional Round, where they are up against the Philadelphia Eagles. Unfortunately for them, each of their playoff games appears to face a hostile environmental obstacle. After the Los Angeles Wild card, the weather prediction for the road game in Philadelphia is reportedly more vigorous.
Given the circumstances, the Eagles hold a significant advantage as they play on their home field where it’s anyway tough for other teams to play. In contrast, the Rams may struggle, as they are not accustomed to competing in such extreme conditions.
