The Los Angeles Rams had four potential opponents in the divisional around after their win over the Carolina Panthers. The only team they couldn’t face next weekend was the Green Bay Packers, but they’ve since been eliminated so they’re off the list permanently.
Following the Chicago Bears’ comeback win over the Green Bay Packers on Saturday night, the Rams’ list of potential opponents is down to just two: the Bears and the Seattle Seahawks. The Rams can’t face the Philadelphia Eagles or San Francisco 49ers anymore, though their game on Sunday at 4:30 will determine who Los Angeles plays in the next round.

Either way, the Rams will be on the road next weekend, playing on either Saturday or Sunday. Here are the latest scenarios for the divisional playoffs in the NFC.
If the 49ers win…
Rams at Bears
49ers at Seahawks
A road win by the 49ers on Sunday would send the Rams to Chicago for a game against the Bears, the only remaining NFC playoff team Los Angeles hasn’t faced this season.
If the Eagles win…
Rams at Seahawks
Eagles at Bears
The Eagles beating the 49ers at home will set up a rubber match between the Rams and Seahawks, their third meeting of the season. The Seahawks had a first-round bye so they’ll be well-rested, but the Rams beat them once already and blew a 16-point lead to lose the second game.
