SEATTLE -- Within minutes of the Seattle Seahawks winning to maintain their playoff hopes, the video boards inside Lumen Field flashed a message:

Smith was intercepted by Ramsey on the first play of the game and Seattle didn't reach the end zone until his TD toss to Lockett after halftime. Rams Coach Sean McVay avoided all questions after the game that centered on his future in Los Angeles.

It was one of those plays they drew it up perfect, got us in the coverage they wanted and I was going to go out and make a play." Seattle went three-and-out to start the extra session, but the Rams failed to capitalize. ... If we're in or we're not, I think we can hold our head up high and understand we did some great work and we did what a lot of people didn't expect us to do."

"I got the opportunity to be a special teamer and I got the chance to see what I could be able to do with that. And now I'm getting a chance to be really be able to see how great I could be as a receiver." Down the line, Lockett will have more opportunities to ruminate over the stats and awards he compiled in another fantastic season. Sure enough, Lockett and his coaches as well as teammates got their cake and were able to eat it too. All I had to do was make sure I caught it and held onto it because Troy Hill made a great play just trying to be able to knock it out of my hands whenever I caught it." In the process, the star receiver made more history in a season where he has stacked numerous milestones, including breaking Largent's record with a touchdown catch in six straight games. While blessed to reach 1,000 yards once again, not surprisingly, Lockett indicated he still would have viewed this season as a great one even if he fell short of that mark. And, of course, he made sure to credit Smith and DK Metcalf for helping him get to this point in a year where he has dealt with plenty of adversity, including missing a game last month recovering from hand surgery. Eager to deflect praise to his teammates whenever he can, a humble Lockett has always preferred to downplay his individual accomplishments. Trailing 13-6 early in the third quarter, Lockett initially took at outside release towards the sideline, looking as if he was running a vertical fade route similar to the one he ran on Seattle's first play. In the case of receivers, route running truly emulates an art form with the best of the best buttering up defenders to create big play opportunities as games progress. - At the NFL level, separation between elite players and good players boils down the smallest of details.

Jalen Ramsey and Taylor Rapp were two of the Rams' highest-graded players in their Week 18 loss to the Seahawks.

Lake, who replaced Yeast, tied for the team-high with seven tackles and also had a sack. He only completed half of his 26 passes for 147 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. He made five tackles, picked off two passes and came up with the key stop on Kenneth Walker near the goal line to help force a field goal instead of a go-ahead touchdown. Gaines only played 18 snaps, a lesser role for the nose tackle again. He also put a big hit on Tyler Lockett along the sideline to prevent a deep completion. Shelton only gave up one pressure, the fewest of any Rams offensive lineman. In Wagner’s return to the Seahawks, he made seven tackles, four stops, hit Geno Smith once and had one tackle for a loss. Hill gave up 54 yards and a touchdown in coverage and he missed one tackle, as well. Floyd shockingly only had a 40.3 overall grade despite recording five pressures, three QB hits, one sack and a tackle for a loss. Pro Football Focus graded the Rams offense very poorly, with the top player failing to score higher than even 75.0 overall. Leonard Floyd’s grade was shockingly low, however, considering he had five pressures and a sack in the loss. Higbee caught four passes for only 33 yards and laid a key block on Tutu Atwell’s touchdown run up the left side.

I am not drawing a direct parallel between that LA team and this Seattle one, but simply pointing to the fact that many of us felt uneasy the moment we saw that match-up on paper. Just like that team, this iteration of the Seahawks has to take on a heavily favored team in the playoffs. But history is not on their side, and Seattle will need to capitalize on this with their defense that has allowed 16.8 points per game over the last four weeks. But what this doesn’t account for is the fact that the Seattle Seahawks have never lost to the 49ers in the postseason.
