The Los Angeles Rams will travel to Seattle to take on their NFC West rival, Seattle Seahawks. With a perfect record, Seattle has their work ahead of them.

It’s a battle of the NFC West when the Los Angeles Rams head to Seattle to face off against the Seattle Seahawks. One is the former favorite and a forgotten contender while the other is undefeated and an early favorite for Super Bowl LIII. How the tables have turned for the two franchises but let’s get into what we can expect from both teams before Sunday’s matchup.

For years, the Seattle Seahawks were the favorites in the NFC West. With Russell Wilson at the helm and former players like Marshawn Lynch and Jermaine Kearse at his disposal, their offense was crazy. Coupled with the Legion of Boom, the Seahawks were unstoppable and now they’re just abysmal.

With the Seahawks poor o-line play and loss of Earl Thomas, the team is struggling to win a game. With a 1-3 record, they’re no longer kings of the NFC West and it’s sad to watch the franchise fall so fast. Right now, the Seahawks just have to try and hope for the best.

The opposite can be said about the Los Angeles Rams. The team is easily one of the most talked about and improved teams in the league. Their defense is stellar featuring some of the biggest names in football while the offense has arguably some of the best receivers. The Rams are becoming superstars and we’re just all along for the ride.
