The Los Angeles Rams will host the Seattle Seahawks this weekend from Sofi Stadium on CBS.
Seattle Seahawks Preview
Seattle improved to 6-3 after defeating Washington at home by three, 39-36 the Seahawks struck revenge on the DMV with a thrilling win over the Commanders, and they’ll look to double down here in divisional action. The Seattle offense is scoring 21.4 ppg, while passing for 233.1 ypg, rushing for 97.3 ypg, and converting 31.9% of their third downs.
Seahawks Player Props
Geno Smith bounced back with a season-high 369 yards and a pair of scores in the win over Washington. The former West Virginia quarterback really needed an outing last week to shake a cold stretch of play, and he’ll look to avoid another meltdown here in LA. Smith has passed for 2,171 yards, with 11 touchdowns to seven interceptions thru nine games.
Kenneth Walker III rebounded with 63 yards in last week’s victory, and he leads the Seahawks with 595 yards rushing on 145 carries.
DK Metcalf caught a season-high seven passes versus Washington, managed to gain 50 yards on just one catch last week, and he leads Seattle in receiving yards (552), with 35 catches.
Tyler Lockett is first on the team in receptions (46), for 494 yards receiving.
The Seattle defense has allowed 21.9 ppg.
Los Angeles Rams Preview
Los Angeles fell to 3-6 after losing to Green Bay at Lambeau, 20-3. The Rams are falling apart, and they’ll look to avoid a crucial fourth straight loss here at home. The LAR offense is scoring 19.8 ppg, while passing for 249.1 ypg, rushing for 104.9 ypg, and converting 42.1% of their third downs.
Rams Player Props
Matthew Stafford is set to return and make his first start of November after injury his thumb against the Cowboys, and that could potentially help stop the bleeding. Stafford has passed for 2,070 yards, with eight touchdowns to seven interceptions.
Leading rusher Kyren Williams remains out, which means Darrell Henderson and Royce Freeman will handle the work again.
BYU rookie Puka Nacua leads LAR in receptions (64) and receiving yards (827).
Cooper Kupp has 23 catches for 364 receiving yards thru five games.
Seattle vs Los Angeles Trends
SEA is 4-4-1 against the spread, with a 4-5 O/U record.
LAR is 4-4-1 ATS, with a 3-6 over/under record.
Corey’s Free Pick
If the line was bigger, I’d love spotting the hosting Rams the points, as NFC West matchups always tend to be close, outside of Arizona. Matt Stafford will have some rust to shake here, and I simply like leaning on Pete Carroll’s squad to come in and execute after pulling off a strong win last week. Let’s back Seattle for this divisional battle.
