The Rams won their 5th straight on Saturday night but it didn’t do much for their outlook in this week’s power rankings

After a low-scoring win over the Cardinals, the Rams could win the NFC West based on how the remainder of Week 17 goes.

Coach Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams, who defeated the Arizona Cardinals 13-9 on Saturday night at SoFi Stadium, secured the NFC West title late Sunday night, clinching the crown by way of a strength-of-victory tiebreaker over the Seattle Seahawks.

Sean McVay was asked after Saturday night’s win over the Arizona Cardinals whether he would consider resting his starters in the season finale if the Los Angeles Rams clinched the NFC West beforehand.

The Los Angeles Rams did their job in Week 17 in beating the Arizona Cardinals, and then with some help from teams around the league, they clinched the NFC West, punching their ticket to the NFL Playoffs.
