Seahawks End Season with Win Over Rams

The Seattle Seahawks concluded their 2024 season with a thrilling 30-25 victory over the Los Angeles Rams, marking their twelfth winning season in thirteen years. Quarterback Geno Smith shone, tossing a career-high four touchdown passes and securing $6 million in contract incentives, as he led the team to a 10-7 finish in head coach Mike Macdonald's inaugural season. Despite the win, the Rams fielded primarily backups after clinching the NFC West title, which highlighted some defensive shortcomings for Seattle, allowing 403 offensive yards. Macdonald's achievement as the first Seahawks coach to win 10 games in his debut season is a bright spot amidst offseason uncertainties regarding key players like Smith and wide receiver DK Metcalf. The game ultimately left fans with a mix of optimism and concern as the team prepares for the offseason with several roster questions to address. The Seahawks' performance suggests potential for growth, despite the disappointment of missing the playoffs.
