It is a tough call on the Seahawks/ Rams game, because of the Covid disruption. The Seahawks defense has shown real improvement lately in points allowed, red zone protection and rushing yards allowed. Their run offense has climbed dramatically, and Russel has looked back in form. How will they fare against the Rams? Much depends on who is playing today so it will be a last minute decision. The Rams are all about pass offense, with Stafford and Cupp front and center. It is not that the Rams never run, but they are 25th in the league at the moment, so winning against the Rams means controlling the pass. The Seahawks are not successful in QB pressure,(29th rated). They are worst in the league in pass yards allowed and there has been no sign of improvement lately. The Rams are not a warm and fuzzy matchup for the Seahakwks defense.

The Rams defense is solid vs the run, but allow plenty of pass yards. They are solid in the redzone as well, and are monsters in applying pressure. The Seattle O line has not been effective in protecting their Qbs. Wilson has been sacked 26 times in his shortened season. Look for more of the same today.

In the end, it may be that Seattle suffers more than the Rams from the Covid delay. They will be missing Lockett and will be short in running backs. The Rams need this win and having a dodged a bullet with the game delay, will be fired up for a win tonight. Look for a healthy and well-protected Stafford to put the boots to the Seahawks secondary. Wilson notwithstanding, the Rams are a better team, and will outscore Seattle significantly. Take the Rams to win and cover.
