Looking at the four scenarios for the Seahawks as they look to get past the Rams in the NFC West title race.
It’s a tight finish in the NFC West between the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams for the division title. The Arizona Cardinals are lurking at 7-7 but not in a great position for a miracle finish, whereas the 6-8 San Francisco 49ers could be eliminated from the playoffs this weekend. With the Seahawks throwing away their slender division lead last week, the Rams hold first place on the head-to-head tiebreaker despite having an identical 8-6 record.
If Seattle wins in Week 17 and the Rams lose, Los Angeles can still get the head-to-head tiebreaker by sweeping the Seahawks in Week 18. However, if the Washington Commanders slip up in the Wild Card race, the Seahawks could have an alternate path to the playoffs open up, so I wouldn’t just waste Week 17 just because of the divisional situation.
