The good, the bad, and the ugly from Seahawks’ loss to Rams

The Seattle Seahawks were on the receiving end of a stunning blowout on the road as the reigning NFC West champs sent them packing, 28-12.

Division games are never a sure thing, as the Seattle Seahawks found out on “Sunday Night Football” after a punishing 28-12 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The Seahawks had the opportunity to clinch a playoff berth with a loss or tie, but instead fell to second in the NFC West due in part to the 49ers’ win over the Saints earlier in the day. This week, Seattle boasted one star but unfortunately fielded much more to criticize – here’s the good, the bad, and the ugly from the Seahawks’ prime-time outing at the Coliseum.

THE GOOD

Quandre Diggs: The trade for Quandre Diggs looks more and more like a steal as the safety picked off Rams quarterback Jared Goff in two consecutive drives, bringing life to a Seahawks team that trailed by 18 at the beginning of the second half. He brought the first interception back 55 yards to the house for six points on the first drive of the third quarter, then surprised Goff deep in the red zone on the next drive to save another Rams touchdown and give Seattle the ball back. Diggs has been involved in five turnovers this season, having notched three interceptions, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery in just four games with the Seahawks.
