ST. LOUIS (AP) - On paper, the St. Louis Rams didn't give Sam Bradford much to throw to. A graduate of two practice squads and an undrafted rookie with a balky left knee have turned out to be pretty good options for a franchise that's one win away from its first playoff berth since 2004. Pint-sized, do-it-all Danny Amendola is among the league leaders in receptions (83) and clutch third-down catches heading into Sunday's winner-take-all game at Seattle for the NFC West title. His 84-yard kickoff return |

If only the Lions played in the decrepit NFC West. Right now the St. Louis Rams appear to be the frontrunner to win the West with a .500 record and have a do-or-die showdown with Seattle on tap for Sunday. But to be honest the Lions have no reason to be in the NFC North race with the likes of powerhouses Green Bay, Chicago and |

ST. LOUIS (AP) - One year removed from a one-win season, the St. Louis Rams are one win away from the postseason. All they need is a win Sunday night at Seattle, where they haven't prevailed since 2004, to win the NFC West. After living through the misery of 2009, they're overjoyed to have the chance. And in prime time, too. The NFL used its flexible scheduling policy to move Rams (7-8) vs. Seahawks (6-9) to an evening time slot. If the Seahawks win, they'll become the first division champion with a lo |

ST. LOUIS (AP) - Tight end Mike Hoomanawanui is expected to practice on a limited basis Wednesday as the St. Louis Rams attempt to get the rookie receiving threat ready for this week's game at Seattle for the NFC West title.

| St. Louis, MO (Sportsbooks) - The San Francisco 49ers are apparently ready to fire head coach Mike Singletary. The 49ers were the preseason favorite to win the NFC West but never lived up to the lofty expectations. A loss to the St. Louis Rams on Sunday officially eliminated them from the playoff race with a 5-10 record. The San Francisco Chronicle reported team owner Jed York has begun a search for a new general manager and ultimately a new head coach. Singletary may not even be on the sidelines for the |
