The Seattle Seahawks face the Los Angeles Rams in a pivotal NFC West clash. Seattle’s offense, led by Geno Smith, relies on deep throws to DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The Rams counter with a top-10 pass defense, but their run defense has struggled—Seattle’s Kenneth Walker III could exploit this for big gains. Expect Seattle to lean on the ground game early to open play-action.
The Rams’ offense, powered by Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp, thrives on quick passes. However, Seattle’s secondary is vulnerable to tight ends, making Tyler Higbee a sleeper pick. Rams’ defensive tackle Aaron Donald will pressure Smith, but Seattle’s offensive line has been improving.
– Point spread: Rams -3.5 — home field advantage and Stafford’s experience in prime time matter. – Over/Under: Over 46.5 — both teams rank top-10 in passing yards, leading to a shootout. – Player props: Kenneth Walker III anytime touchdown (+140) — Rams allow 4.8 yards per carry.
