Here we go. The battle for the NFC Western Division is on the line in Week 9, and it's the LA Rams (3-4) on the road to take on the Seattle Seahawks (4-4) to determine who emerges with the win. A win for the Seahawks will go a long way to squelching the Rams hopes of another late-season surge to the NFL Playoffs. But a victory by the Rams will extend the team's winning streak to three games, and will be the teams third win of the season against a postseason caliber team.
The Rams swept the Seahawks in 2023, even though the team got off to a slow start last season. The Rams may not have such an easy time with this one, as they have a rather lengthy list of players on Injured Reserve. Of course, the final injury report for Week 9 indicates that both teams will have to compete without key starters. That is enough to alarm the fans of both teams.
Neither the Rams nor the Seahawks are in a particularly favorable position in terms of potential seeding for the 2025 NFL Playoffs. With the top seven teams (four division winners and three wildcard teams) competing in postseason play, the Seahawks (11th-seed) and the Rams (12th-seed) have some ground to make up in they hope to play beyond the regular season.
