A Divisional Matchup With Important Playoff and Seeding Implications Sunday Night Football Seahawks at Rams was a big game. Seattle was looking to keep pace with the San Francisco 49ers at 11-2. While the Rams were looking to keep their playoff hopes alive. Sitting at 7-5 they might need to win out and get help. They are sitting right on the outside looking in. Hoping to catch the Vikings, Or Seahawks or anyone. Seattle could move into the top seed in the NFC with a win. Or they could fall back down to the 5th seed with a loss. That's how close things were. Seahawks at Rams came in after a solid Monday Night win. Taking care of the Vikings 37-30. The score was closer than the game was. Minnesota came on late to make it a game. Russell Wilson went 21/31 for 240 yards 2 TD's and 1 Interception. He was not really needed as the Seahawks had a solid game plan. Keep it on the ground to Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny. They combined for 38 carries 176 yards and a touchdown each. This would most likely be the same gameplan going into Sunday night Seahawks at Rams. Los Angeles came off a decisive 34-7 victory in Arizona. Jared Goff seemed to get his groove back. Throwing for 424 yards on 32/43 passing and 2 touchdowns. Rams fans should be happy Coach Sean McVay started using Todd Gurley more. While he didn't have a huge game. He had 19 carries being used early and often. Seahawks at Rams will look to stop Gurley and control the run game themselves. Time of Possession will be a huge Sunday night. The team that can keep their defence rested and control the momentum should win the game. Aaron Donald has been a key for most offensive lines. Being double and triple-teamed all year. Expect much of the same to give Wilson the time he needs in the pocket.

The Seahawks fall back to the 5th spot and a wild card berth. The NFC is so close this year we could see a 12 win team not getting the bye. Seattle will head out on the road to play the Carolina Panthers. While they have had an up and down season it should be a tough task for Pete Carroll's team. Rashaad Penny will be out for the season. Seahawks at Rams lost more than just the game. The Rams travel to Dallas to face the 6-7 Cowboys. This is a great chance to build on a 2 game winning streak. While the Cowboys come in on a 2 game losing streak. They are in a tough spot after making the Superbowl Last year. Los Angeles could possibly win out and go 11-5 and not make the playoffs. The NFC is so strong this year that a 10-3 record gets you a wildcard birth. It will come down to games between the 49ers and Seahawks. Packers and Vikings, and Rams at 49ers. it will be a tight run to the finish. Brees will look to hold the Saints in the number 1 seed by winning out. It will be an interesting end to the season. Seahawks at Rams sure helped but L.A. needs more help to make the playoffs. They might have waited too long to make their move. Dallas will be desperate with the Eagles pulling out the win on Monday night. We should have a great game on Sunday afternoon.
