That would make for an interesting NFC playoff picture, because as of now, it appears very likely that the Packers will get a bye, the Saints will finish 2nd, the Seahawks 3rd, and the Bucs will play the NFC east champions. That assumes that the Saints and Packers both win next week.
If so, the Saints and Seahawks will each play one of the Rams, Cardinals or Bears. If the Bears lose to the Packers and the Rams win vs. Arizona, it's Saints vs. Bears and Seahawks vs. Rams. But if Goff's out, then you'd probably think the Cardinals win over LAR.
A Cards win and a Bears loss means both the Rams and Cardinals make the playoffs, but I am not clear on who wins the tiebreaker between them, and who would be playing who. I'd much rather play a Goff-less Rams team than the Kyler Murray show. Apparently the Rams backup is John Wolford, who I have never heard of.
