The Seahawks have allowed 100-plus rushing yards in six of eight games this season.
Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford threw four touchdowns in Week 8. This was one more than he had thrown all season.
Rams running back Kyren Williams has scored in every game this season.
The Seattle Seahawks are hosting the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The Rams are 3-4, while the Seahawks are 4-4. Below are the odds for this game, my pick, predictions, and best player props.
Look below for the moneyline, point spread, and total odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook, where new users can receive $150 in bonus bets after placing a winning $5 wager.
Team | Moneyline | Spread | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Seattle Seahawks | +108 | +1.5 (-110) | Over 48.5 (-110) |
Los Angeles Rams | -126 | -1.5 (-110) | Under 48.5 (-110) |
The Seahawks started the season strong, but they’ve been flailing, going 1-4 over their last five games.
This season, they’ve allowed 130.38 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown per game to opposing running backs. Further, those running backs average 5.29 yards per carry.
The Seahawks will need to contend with Rams running back Kyren Williams, who has scored in every game this season and has nine touchdowns.
The Rams will cover on the road.

The reason for picking this game is quite simple: the Seahawks' defense hasn’t been very good over the past five games. They performed well against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7, holding them to 14 points, but other than that, it hasn’t been good.
They’ve allowed 29 points or more in the four losses, including 29 to the lowly New York Giants.
In addition to the rushing stats above, the Seahawks have allowed multiple touchdown passes in four of their last five games.
In Week 8, Stafford completed 25 of 34 passes for 279 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception.
In their return, wide receivers Pula Nacua and Cooper Kupp combined for 12 catches, 157 yards, and one touchdown.
Wide receiver Demarcus Robinson caught two touchdowns, and Williams caught five passes for 19 yards and a score.
With Nacua and Kupp back in the fold, this passing attack looked fantastic at home against the Minnesota Vikings.
Now, Nacua and Kupp will face a Seahawks defense that’s allowed 11 catches for 132 yards and one touchdown per game to the position.
The Seahawks offense will face a Rams defense that hasn’t allowed a rushing touchdown to an opposing running back over the past two weeks.
They’ve also intercepted four passes over the past two games.
The Rams struggle against opposing wide receivers, which could be a problem against a group that includes D.K. Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (assuming Metcalf and Lockett play).
The Rams allow nearly 133 yards and more than one touchdown per game to the position.
Still, I think the Rams' rushing attack against this weak run defense will help them control the clock, and Williams will go for over 100 yards.

I mentioned and praised Williams above, and rightfully so. The odds don’t provide much value at -180, but I don’t see how this doesn’t hit.
Williams has scored nine touchdowns this season, including in every game.
The Seahawks have surrendered a rushing touchdown to opposing running backs in only two games. They’ve scored in three straight games.
They haven’t allowed a receiving touchdown to the position, but that’s OK—of Williams’ nine touchdowns, eight have come on the ground.
He’s scoring.

Stafford didn’t have a single game with multiple passing touchdowns until Week 8, when he had four.
What changed?
He had Nacua and Kupp in the lineup for the first time since Week 1. Nacua got hurt in Week 1, and Kupp did in Week 2.
Opposing quarterbacks have tossed multiple touchdowns in four of the last five games against the Seahawks.
The full-strength passing attack will come up big on the road against Seattle.

I’m doubling down on Williams here and taking the over at 90.5.
Williams has posted 91 rushing yards or more this season in three of his last four games. He hasn’t been the most efficient, averaging 3.8 yards per carry.
Still, he’s facing a Seahawks defense that’s allowing 130.38 rushing yards per game to running backs and 5.29 yards per carry.
They’ve allowed 100-plus rushing yards to running backs in six of eight games, including five straight.
In all, five backs have posted 91 rushing yards or more.
Williams will get plenty of carries and should be able to carve up this weak run defense.
