It took an ugly win of their own against the Los Angeles Rams and an unexpected win by the Detroit Lions in Green Bay, but the Seattle Seahawks are the playoffs. FOX13
With a 19-16 win of their own in overtime over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday afternoon combined with the Detroit Lions 20-16 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night, the Seahawks earned the 7th seed in the NFC and will play the San Francisco 49ers next weekend.
"We did everything we could to make the season last as long as possible," Carroll joked immediately after their victory earlier in the afternoon. "We squeezed every drop out of it." The season continues onward. For now, here's a look at the takeaways of the season-prolonging victory over the Rams:Wide receiver Tyler Lockett and running back Ken Walker III each crossed the 1,000-yard plateau for the season with their performances Sunday against the Rams.
Meanwhile, Walker put himself into the offensive rookie of the year discussion in carrying the Seahawks rushing attack the second half of the season. Walker had five separate 100-yard games efforts on the year, including each of the final three games of the season for Seattle. He took over as the starter after Rashaad Penny broke his leg in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints.
"That's a tough way to start the game," Smith said. "We've done that twice now. Honestly, it's unacceptable in my eyes. Some things that obviously we can correct, but when it happens, you've got to have a short memory.""Regardless of the stats or what was going on, I was in it to win it," Smith said. "I was going out there, I was ready to lay my body on the line, do whatever it took to win. And that was the message I had.
