The Seattle Seahawks (6-5) and Los Angeles Rams (3-8) renew their NFC West rivalry when they square off on Sunday in their 1st meeting of the season. Kickoff from SoFi Stadium is at 4:05 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Seahawks vs. Rams odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Seahawks are trying to snap a 2-game losing streak. They lost last week to the Las Vegas Raiders 40-34 in overtime, giving up an 86-yard TD run to RB Josh Jacob in OT. The Seahawks rank 28th in points allowed (281) and yards allowed (4,276) this season, but they’ve also scored the 4th-most points (291) in the NFL.
The Rams have lost 5 straight games since their Week 7 bye, 3 by double-digits. They haven’t scored more than 21 points in any of their last 5 games and have sunk to 29th in the league in scoring (178) and 31st in yards (3,078). Injuries have plagued the Rams all season and they’re now without WR Cooper Kupp, DT Aaron Donald and likely QB Matthew Stafford again.

Seahawks at Rams picks and predictions
Prediction
Seahawks 24, Rams 13
Moneyline
The Rams are huge underdogs for the 2nd straight week and once again, I’m passing on the moneyline. They’re most likely going to lose to the Seahawks, but I’m not willing to bite on the -340 money line. There simply isn’t enough potential reward for the risk you’d have to take. PASS.
Against the spread
The Rams are an NFL-worst 2-7-2 ATS this season, and that includes a push against the Chiefs last week as 16-point underdogs. They really should have gotten blown out even more by Kansas City, but the Chiefs shockingly went 1-for-6 in the red zone.
I like the SEAHAWKS -7 (-110) to cover the spread on the road. Seattle’s defense may be bad, but the Rams offense is worse and won’t be able to keep up with the Seahawks.
Over/Under
The Rams are averaging 14.8 points per game in their last 5 games, and Stafford played in 3 of those. This offense is a mess right now, struggling to run the ball and move it through the air with a lack of playmakers at receiver.
I could see the Rams breaking off a long run against the Seahawks’ 29th-ranked rush defense and scoring maybe 1 TD, but nothing beyond that. And the Rams should hold up in the red zone again, which will hold the Seahawks to field goals instead of points.
Take the UNDER 41 (-111).
