Chris’ Pick

I’m going for the Seahawks here. The Rams have owned this series, covering in 6 straight and 9 of 10, but the Seahawks are the better and healthier team here, especially on offense. I want no part of this Rams’ offense without Matthew Stafford if he can’t go as we saw how bad it was last time out against an average Packers team. The Seahawks are still playing fairly well, winning 6 of their last 8 and in a near pick ‘em, I have to roll with Seattle here.
