The Seattle Seahawks dropped to 6-2 on the season after being defeated by the Buffalo Bills, 44-34, this past Sunday.

Seattle was outgained by Buffalo by a 420-419 margin and lost the turnover battle by a 4-0 margin in the loss. Leading the way for the Seahawks was QB Russell Wilson who completed 28 of 41 passes for 390 yards, 2 TD, & 2 INT.

Leading the way for the Seahawks backfield has been RB Chris Carson (66 att, 323 yards, 3 TD) & Carlos Hyde (31 att, 125 yards, 2 TD) who have both missed the last two games due to injury. If both are not able to go, the Seattle backfield will be led by Travis Homer (25 att, 88 yards), and DeeJay Dallas (27 att, 80 yards, 2 TD).
Defensively, Seattle is allowing their opponent to average 30.4 ppg on 466.1 total yards per game (372.5 passing yds/g; 93.6 rushing yds/g).
The Los Angeles Rams dropped to 5-3 on the season after being defeated by the Miami Dolphins, 28-17, on November 1st. Los Angeles was able to pile up yards but struggled with turnovers agianst the Miami defense and couldn’t fight back after Miami went into halftime with a 28-10 lead. Los Angeles outgained Miami by a 471-145 margin, however, lost the turnover battle by a 4-2 margin in the loss. Leading the way for the Rams was WR Cooper Kupp who had 11 receptions for 110 yards.

The Seahawks are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games in November and 13-6-1 ATS in their last 20 road games. The Rams are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a ATS loss and 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 home games.
Seattle has one of the most explosive offenses led by Russell Wilson, however, I just cannot see Seattle going deep into the playoffs behind a defense that ranks 30th in scoring defense and last in total yards per game. Los Angeles can be a bit inconsistent on the offensive end, however, as I do not see the Rams having trouble putting up points against the Seahawks and that I think the Rams defense, which ranks 2nd in scoring defense, will be able to give Seattle some trouble, I’m taking Los Angeles to cover this small home spread. Good Luck!
