There’s a slight part of me that doesn’t want the Atlanta Falcons to beat the Los Angeles Rams on Monday Night Football. It would mean that the Seattle Seahawks were literally a few yards away from clinching the NFC West title through the Rams and San Francisco 49ers losing, but the Chicago Bears couldn’t seal […]
