Seahawks Fall to Rams in Overtime

The Seattle Seahawks suffered a disappointing 26-20 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams, marking their fourth consecutive home defeat and fifth loss in six games, which leaves them at the bottom of the NFC West. Despite a standout performance from wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who nearly set records, the team struggled with significant mistakes, including three interceptions by Geno Smith and 12 penalties totaling 95 yards. Head coach Mike Macdonald remains optimistic about the team's potential to recover, especially with star receiver DK Metcalf expected to return soon from a Grade 1 MCL sprain. The Seahawks' offensive inconsistencies, coupled with defensive efforts that went to waste, highlight the urgent need for improvement heading into their bye week. As they prepare for a crucial match against the San Francisco 49ers, the Seahawks must address their errors to remain competitive in the division. Overall, the team's resilience and ability to stay in contention despite challenges provide a glimmer of hope for the remainder of the season.
