THE TEAM NEWS
SEATTLE SEAHAWKS
- Seattle produced another strong performance to defeat Minnesota on Monday Night Football with the Seahawks now boasting a 10-2 record for the season and they look more than capable of having a crack at the Super Bowl.
- The Seahawks have now won five in a row and their roster is looking healthy after getting several players back on the field on Monday, with defensive end Jadeveon Clowney one of those returning, but the issue with his core will likely see him be limited in practice during the week.
- Five players missed the first practice of the week due to injury but that will not be too much of a worry due to the short turnaround between their game on Monday and Wednesday’s session.
LOS ANGELES RAMS
- Los Angeles Rams improved to 7-5 as they put their hammering by Baltimore behind them by securing a big win versus Arizona last week but this game against Seattle will give the Rams a big indication of the direction their season is headed.
- Rams tight end Gerald Everett missed his team's win last week because of a knee injury and although they hope to have him back on the field in Week 14, he was absent from Wednesday’s practice.
- The only other player not to take to the field was tackle Andrew Whitworth but his absence was not injury related and there does not appear to be any doubt that he will feature come game day.
THE PREDICTION
Los Angeles Rams showed some good character in the way they played in response to a big loss when defeating Arizona last week but they will face a much tougher test here. Seattle lie in wait, on the back of five consecutive wins, and the Rams have a huge job on their hands. Defeat could be disastrous for their play-off hopes, but the Seahawks are likely to be too good in this NFC West clash.
