With home playoff loss, Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks finish flat after stellar start to season

SEATTLE -- Russell Wilson's 2020 season began with a record touchdown pace and talk of his first career MVP award. It ended abruptly with a thud and a question: What happened to the quarterback and the high-scoring Seattle Seahawks offense that couldn't be stopped over the first two months?

The struggles for Wilson and Co. culminated Saturday as the Seahawks lost 30-20 in the wild-card round to the Los Angeles Rams at an empty Lumen Field, snapping what had been the third-longest home winning streak in NFL postseason history. The Seahawks hadn't lost a home playoff game since the 2004 season and had won in all six tries under Pete Carroll before Saturday.
