The Seahawks have been struggling to find the end zone, settling for a lot of Jason Myers scoring. Those points can make the difference in the game, with Sam Darnold making more mistakes at home than Matthew Stafford on the road.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bill Bender, <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/news\/nfl-picks-predictions-week-16\/462d587f5262a948a2423513\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sporting News:<\/a> Rams 23, Seahawks 20<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Rams are averaging 30 points per game and have scored 40-plus points each of the last two weeks but might be without Davante Adams (hamstring) on a short week. This game could determine home-field advantage in the NFC. Seattle had four turnovers in the first meeting \u2013 a 21-19 loss. The Rams have won the last two meetings at Seattle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pete Prisco, <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/news\/priscos-week-16-nfl-picks-seahawks-top-rams-on-tnf-packers-edge-bears-jaguars-upset-broncos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CBS Sports:<\/a> Seahawks 29, Rams 24<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This game will go a long way in deciding the NFC West. The Rams beat the Seahawks earlier this year, but Seattle turned it over four times in that game. They won&#8217;t do that here. The Rams defense has been leaky lately, which is a concern. Sam Darnold struggled last week, and has struggled the last two times out against the Rams, but I think he plays better here. Seattle is the pick.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>More Picks From Around The Web<\/p>\n<p>Mike Florio, <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/pfts-week-16-2025-nfl-picks-florio-vs-simms\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NBC Sports:<\/a> Seahawks 27, Rams 24<\/p>\n<p>Chris Simms, <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/pfts-week-16-2025-nfl-picks-florio-vs-simms\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NBC Sports:<\/a> Seahawks 23, Rams 20<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Seattle Seahawks (11-3) take on the Los Angeles Rams (11-3) for Week 16 at Lumen Field.
