QB sitch: The million-dollar question is whether Jared Goff or John Wolford will start at QB. Neither of them are exactly healthy, so either way we’re nervous. Can there be a third QB on standby, just in case? Last week was too close for comfort.
On the other side of the ball: It’s the clash of the Titans (well, not the ones from Tennessee): the Rams’ No. 1 defense against the Packers’ No. 1 offense. All eyes will be on the hotly anticipated matchup between Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey and Packer Davante Adams, one of the top wide receivers in the league. Pass the guac.
- Up front, two-time Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald should be ready to play and turn his competitors, namely Packers QB and MVP favorite Aaron Rodgers, into
SwissWisconsin cheese.
Bundle up: Lastly, we’re hoping the boys are ready for the chilly weather, because the forecast for game day is literally freezing. Not our idea of a gouda time.
