The Rams are double-digit favorites on Saturday in Carolina as we prepare for Wildcard Weekend, and teams that are double-digit favorites in the WC round are 12-1 in the last 13 games. This Rams team is getting healthy at the right time, and their aspirations are far above a wildcard win. Regardless, the Rams have to show up and get back to their winning ways. A commanding win vs. Carolina will alter how fans feel moving forward dramatically. But a loss? Could be one of the worst, if not THE worst in the Sean McVay era. We have all the faith in the world that the Rams will take care of business. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

As the 2025 NFL regular season reaches its final weekend, Missing the Point breaks down Week 18 of the NFL season, the finalized playoff picture, and the quarterbacks who defined the year. Hosted by Dave Clarke and Bob Kelly, this episode delivers a full NFL playoff preview along with in-depth 2025 NFL quarterback power rankings based on what actually happened on the field. This is not a preseason projection episode. This is about who earned it. Dave and Bob analyze the top teams heading into the postseason, including the New England Patriots, Chicago Bears, Buffalo Bills, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, and Philadelphia Eagles. They break down matchups, seeding implications, and which teams look built to survive January football. A major focus of the episode is the 2025 NFL quarterback power rankings, where Dave and Bob rank quarterbacks based on full-season performance, not reputation. They evaluate efficiency, consistency, decision-making, durability, supporting cast impact, and how much each quarterback elevated his team. Quarterbacks discussed include Drake Maye of the Patriots, Caleb Williams of the Bears, Josh Allen of the Bills, Lamar Jackson of the Ravens, Brock Purdy of the 49ers, Matthew Stafford of the Rams, Jalen Hurts of the Eagles, Bo Nix of the Broncos, Trevor Lawrence of the Jaguars, and Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs. Dave explains why some quarterbacks who entered the season with MVP expectations failed to meet the moment, while others quietly established themselves as legitimate franchise leaders. Bob adds context around coaching stability, offensive scheme, and how late-season performance often tells the real story heading into the playoffs. The episode also previews Wild Card Weekend, discussing which teams are dangerous lower seeds, which favorites feel vulnerable, and which quarterbacks are under the most pressure once the postseason begins. The conversation highlights how Week 18 results, recent trends, and injury context shape expectations far more than early-season narratives. Key topics covered in this episode include: NFL Week 18 playoff seeding scenarios 2025 NFL playoff preview and Wild Card matchups Full NFL quarterback power rankings Patriots and Bears postseason expectations Which quarterbacks can win playoff games Teams built for January football Late-season trends that matter in the playoffs If you’re searching for NFL Week 18 analysis, 2025 NFL playoff preview, NFL quarterback rankings, Patriots playoff breakdown, Bears postseason outlook, or who the best quarterbacks in the NFL were this season, this episode delivers detailed, opinion-driven analysis without hot takes or manufactured controversy.

Colts QB Philip Rivers tells Rich why he chose to return to the NFL after his 5-year retirement, if we could see him playing in the league next season, and discusses being coached by current Indiana Hoosiers head coach Curt Cignetti during his NC State playing days. Rich explains why he agrees with Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning who believes the College Football Playoff should be wrapped up by New Year's Day, and lays out how the controversial Transfer Portal window opening will impact new LSU HC Lane Kiffin (who just earned $500,000 when Ole Miss made the CFP semifinals). In ‘What's More Likely' Rich weighs in on Buccaneers vs Panthers, Seahawks vs 49ers, Matthew Stafford vs Drake Maye for NFL MVP honors, Mike Tomlin's future as the Steelers' head coach, Myles Garrett's pursuit of the NFL single-season sack record, and more.

The Rams are in a weird spot. If Seattle wins, the Rams own the 5th seed and would go play the winner of the NFC South (Panthers or Buccaneers). If the 49ers win, the Rams would fall to the 6th seed and would have to travel to Chicago or Philadelphia for the first round of the playoffs. REGARDLESS of what happens, Sean McVay decided that he wants to play the starters. Because this team needs it more than they ever have, and if they want to win it all, they need to start gelling again. Reinforcements are on their way, and the truth is: absolutely no one wants to see the Rams in the playoffs when they're fully healthy. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
