The Los Angeles Rams (7-2) host the Seattle Seahawks (7-2) for the biggest NFC West matchup of the year in Week 11, and as both teams have looked phenomenal lately, only one team will be leaving victorious on Sunday. That team will be the Rams by a score of 28-20.
The Seahawks dismantled the Washington Commanders and the Arizona Cardinals in back-to-back weeks, so can they dismantle L.A.? Yes.
Am I picking the Rams because I think Sean McVay is a better overall coach than Mike Macdonald? Yes.
Am I taking into account that Sam Darnold is 0-2 in his last two games vs. the Rams? Yes.
How Seattle can win:
Jaxon Smith-Njigba. He’s playing the best ball of his career and is arguably the best wide receiver in the league. If he and Sam Darnold are getting enough time to get after L.A.‘s secondary, they will be able to keep themselves in the contest. If they can stay in the game, they can win the game.
Fun yet meaningless narrative:
Cooper Kupp may know some tricks about the Rams, and that could be said about Ernest Jones who played for both the Rams and Seattle as well, but the idea of a Kupp revenge game has to be scary for Rams’ fans, and should be fun for Seahawks’ fans.
Final Score Prediction:
Rams 28, Seahawks 20
Winning factor(s):
The Rams have the better coaching, the more prepared roster on offense and defense, Harrison Mevis continues to be a revelation on special teams, and the Rams do enough to win as Matthew Stafford continues to bolster his MVP talk.
Preseason Predictions:
“Week 11 vs. Seattle Seahawks: Win. Jared Verse has Sam Darnold seeing ghosts.“
