Despite upping their record to 10-4 last Sunday with a fairly easy 37-24 win over the Tennessee Titans, the San Francisco 49ers failed to make any headway in the NFC West, as both the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks overcame 10-point deficits in their respective Week 15 contests, with each earning a victory to improve to 11-3.
On Thursday night, however, the dynamic of the division and the entire conference took a interesting turn, as Seattle defeated Los Angeles in an instant classic, fighting back from a 30-14 fourth-quarter deficit to take a 38-37 victory in overtime.
