"The Rams are going to the playoffs. The only questions now: Can they hold on to the No. 1 seed in the NFC and have home-field advantage for the entire postseason. And will receiver Davante Adams be fit for the stretch run? The Rams clinched a playoff spot on Sunday with a 41-34 victory over the Detroit Lions before 74,701 at SoFi Stadium in a game that featured Adams' fourth-quarter departure because of a left hamstring injury."
"Matthew Stafford outdueled Jared Goff, Puka Nacua continued his torrid receiving pace and the Rams defense shut down the Lions in the second half as the Rams improved their record to 11-3 and ensured their seventh playoff appearance under ninth-year coach Sean McVay. It was a huge victory for a Rams team that will be tested again Thursday night when they play the Seattle Seahawks in Seattle."
"The Seahawks (11-3) defeated Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday in Seattle, setting up the Thursday night showdown. The Rams currently hold the tie-breaker over the Seahawks because of their Nov. 16 victory over the Seahawks at SoFi Stadium. Can they capture home field throughout the playoffs for the first time? They advanced to the Super Bowl in the 2018 and the 2021 seasons without the benefit of playing every playoff game at home."
