Tough day for the offensive line and RIq Woolen on defense. Rams win 26-20.
Matthew Stafford calls heads. It’s tails, because… tails never fails. Seahawks get the ball first. A TD would win it here.
Coby Bryant was initially flagged for unnecessary roughness. Would have been a back-breaker. Instead, Rams punt. Seahawks ball with 19 seconds to go, tied at 20.Darious Williams nearly intercepts Geno Smith. Kneeldown, we go to OT. Free football.
Smith sacked, and but then Cody White gets loose for a 28-yard gain. Wow.
Rams punt, and Seahawks will need to drive 73 yards with 1:54 left and no timeouts.
Here we go… Seahawks need a stand and a score here trailing 20-13 with 2:59 to go.
Geno Smith is picked off by Kamren Kinchens again. Smith was looking for AJ Barner, who appeared to have been held by Braden Fiske. Barner couldn’t turn around to try to catch it. Smith was frustrated with the no-call.
And Cody White blocks the punt. Fresh off the practice squad. Quite a day. That came after Coby Bryant nearly picked off Matt Stafford.
Quite a turn of events. Smith looks tot he end zone, gets hit as he throws, and Kamren Kinchens returns it 103 yards for a touchdown — the longest in Rams history. Seahawks then can’t block the Rams defense, Smith goes down, and Dickson punts. Feel like a must-stop situation for the Seahawks defense here.
Joshua Karty hits a 21-yard field goal to tie it up at 13-13 with 27 ticks left Q3. That’s two long drives eating most of the quarter by the Rams, aided by two defensive penalties in each one.
Pretty tough call on Derick Hall for roughing the passer. Got him in the head a little, I guess, but that’s a tough way to give up a third-down conversion.
Tough series for the offensive line there. Rookie Michael Jerrell called for holding, wipes out a big gain on third and long.
Somebody check Riq Woolen’s ankles. May be broken on that TD play. Easy TD for the Rams. Damarcus Robinson fakes in, goes out against Woolen, who bit hard. 11-play, 75-yard drive covering 6:32. 13-10 Seahawks with 8:28 to go Q3. Rams used the outside run a lot on that drive.
Josh Jobe called for pass interference against Cooper Kupp. A little bump caused Kupp to lose his footing.
HALFTIME: Quite a turn of events there. Seahawks finding plays downfield, and Nacua out for the game. Seahawks will need to keep the defense rolling in the second half.
One play after making a great catch just out of bounds, Jaxon Smith-Njigba makes an easy grab in the end zone for a Seahawks touchdown. Myers kicks it through this time for the PAT. 13-3 Seahawks with 5 seconds left in half.
A touchdown! Tyler Lockett beats Darious Williams down the right side for a TD. But Jason Myer’s hooks the PAT. Its 6-3 Seahawks with 51 ticks to go in the half.
Ernest Jones IV drops a pick right at him against his former team. Rams facing third-and-10 at Seahawks 18. Stafford fumbles the snap and it’s field goal time. Will there be points in this game?
We have points! Joshua Karty hits a 38-yard field goal, and this game won’t end 0-0. It’s 3-0 Rams with 3:31 to go in the half. Seahawks will now see if they can score a few.
Shotgun snaps have been an adventure. Smith has one go over him again — hard to say if he was ready for it or not. He recovers, and Dickson will punt out of his own end zone after a delay of game penalty. Nice punt by Dickson. He’s the Player of the Game so far.
Macdonald loses a challenge on a Pete Carrollesque level after Cooper Kupp makes a nice sideline grabb and taps both feet inbounds.
First quarter ends with no score. Actually, 0-0 is a score. Anyway, RT George Fant was out during the previous series. No injury has been announced. Macdonald said they would not rotate, so is it injury? Unknown at this point.
It’s battle of the punters. Dickson punts this one 51 yards and the Rams will start at their own 10 after a nice special teams tackle by Laviska Shenault Jr.Rams will start at their own 21 with 2:53 to go in the first quarter. Seahawks will try to get a third-straight stop.
Charbonnet get the ball on third-and-3. Gets 2. Dickson time.
Rams just come across early twice, second one negating a sack of Geno Smith.
Nice rush by Boye Mafe to disrupt Stafford on third and 19. Rams will punt. That’s two stops by the Seahawks. Will the offense take advantage?
Crazy sequence. Snap through Smith’s hands. Big pass play to JSN. Then Smith’s pass is a big behind JSN, it goes off his hands, and it’s picked by the Rams’ Jaylen McCullough. Rams ball at midfield.
Nice stop by the Seahawks on first down. The 12s are lively, and Stafford’s second and third down passes were a little off the mark. Seahawks will start this drive at their own 40.
A whole lot a Walker so far as he opens with six straight touches. But a pass play to Charbonnet goes nowhere. Tyler Davis sacks Smith to set up third-and-long. Smith airmails it out of bounds and its Dickson time.
Seahawks to receive opening kick after Rams win the toss. What will the first play be on offense? How many touches for Kenneth Walker III this week? Stay tuned.
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald indicated during his pregame show on KIRO Radio that the team changed some process during the week, recognizing that losing four of five required some changes. Will it work? We’ll find out…
This is a big one folks. Win today, and everything seems possible. Lose and they’re at the bottom of the standings heading into the bye week with a ton of questions about the present and future.
