Rams spoiling Seahawks’ playoff hopes starts with stopping the run

The greatest strength of the Los Angeles Rams over the course of the 2022 season was run defense - but last week Austin Ekeler and the Los Angeles Chargers gashed them in a way we haven’t seen.

The test doesn’t get any easier this week with the Rams traveling to take on the Seattle Seahawks and dynamic rookie Kenneth Walker, who is just 64 yards away from topping the 1,000 mark. Fortunately for LA, Greg Gaines is expected to return after a shoulder injury limited his availability against the Chargers. Beating Seattle all starts with slowing down the run and putting the weight of the game on QB Geno Smith.
