A huge NFC West matchup takes place in NFL Week 9 between the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks. All four teams in the NFC West have four losses and this is a huge pivotal game not only in the division but also for a Wild Card spot. The Rams are fully at full strength on the offensive side with the return of Kupp and Nacua. Meanwhile, the Seahawks will be without All-Pro wide receiver D.K. Metcalf. Below are my Rams at Seahawks Preview and Predictions.
As I mentioned above, the Seahawks will be without D.K. Metcalf and his absence was felt last week against the Bills. The Seahawks scored only 10 points in the game. In addition, the Seahawks will also be with tight end Noah Fant. Meanwhile, the Rams are looking to make a run in a division that is up for grabs. Since the bye week, the Rams have won both games including an impressive victory last week against the Minnesota Vikings.
Despite popping up questionable on the injury report, Nacua seems like he will be ready to go in this game against the Seahawks. Can Geno Smith and the offense produce this week against the Rams’ defense?

The question in this game will be can the Seahawks stay ahead of the sticks and move the football with two weapons on offense? Last week the Seahawks were a shell of themselves only producing 10 points against the Bills. Furthermore, the Seahawks have lost four of their last five games and in those four losses, they are allowing 34.5 points per game.
With a healthy Rams team, I believe they will be able to succeed on the ground and through the air. I would expect Kyren Williams to have a big game on the ground and Matthew Stafford to find big plays down the field on play-action passes.
Best Bet: Rams TT Over 23.5
Player Prop Best Bet
Kyren Williams Over 91.5 Rushing Yards
Kyren Williams is a workhorse for the Rams, especially over the last few weeks. NFL Week 9 presents a huge opportunity for Williams to have another big week. Thus far this season, the Seahawks are allowing 130 rushing yards per game but over the last three weeks, the Seahawks are allowing 163 rushing yards per game. In fact, the Seahawks are allowing 6.2 yards per carry in that span. Lastly, Williams is averaging 22 carries per game and has gone over this projection in three out of the last four weeks.
