The set-up: The 4-9 LA Rams visit Seattle to take on the 8-4-1 Seahawks for a Thursday night game. Both teams will play on a ‘short week' with both coming off devastating Week 14 losses. The Seahawks lost to a red-hot Green Bay team 38-10 at Lambeau, while while the Rams got booed out of the LA Coliseum in their 42-14 home loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
LA Rams: Sunday's loss was the eighth in nine games for the Rams and the final straw for Rams head coach Jeff Fisher, who was was fired on Monday. "This is the right time to make a change as our performance has not lived up to my or our fans' expectations," Rams owner Stan Kroenke said in a team issued statement about Fisher's removal as head coach. "We all are focused on improving as an organization and building a team that makes Los Angeles proud. Our mission is to celebrate a Super Bowl title with our fans in Los Angeles. Today is the first step to bringing us closer to that goal." John Fassel, the Rams special teams coordinator, has been tabbed to close out the last three games as head coach. He made need to be a miracle worker. as the Rams rank last in points scored (14.9) and yards gained (286.2)
Seattle: The Seahawks looked just horrible in two of their last three games, losing 14-5 at Tampa Bay in Week 12 and then 38-10 at Green Bay in Week 14. QB Wilson has seven INTs in those two losses and for the season, Seattle is averaging 21.1 PPG, down more than five points per game from last year. Seattle allowed 38 points to Green Bay but it's hard to blame the defense when the team's offense turns it over SIX times! "When we turn the ball over like that, nothing feels right and you don't have a chance to get anything accomplished," head coach Pete Carroll said. "I know you want to know reasons. I don't know. We've been together for five years now and we haven't seen anything like that so it's a pretty unusual occurrence."
The pick: It's pretty common knowledge that the Rams inexplicably own three straight wins over the Seahawks, winning both games last season and won 9-3 at home during Week 2 of the this season. However, Seattle can clinch the NFC West title with a win in this game and is in a tight battle with the 9-4 Lions for the NFC's No. 2 seed, which comes with a first-round bye. The Rams have often looked like a high school team this year and the NFL's No. 1 overall pick, Jared Goff, just hasn't looked ready for primetime. Yes, the Rams are averaging only 12 PPG their last seven but Seattle does seem to bring out the best in them. As for the Seahawks, expect a YUGE bounce-back effort by Wilson and the offense against an LA defense which has allowed more than 40 points (42 and 49, to be exact) in two of its last three games. This VERY low total is headed over. The Over is a 10* play.
