2. In a defensive tilt, Wade Phillips' crew battered Russell Wilson.
The Rams' pass rush came in waves, with Robert Quinn, Aaron Donald, Alec Ogletree and Matt Longacre hounding the QB for (3) sacks and 11 hits.
With the Seahawks' run game bottled up, Wilson was forced to throw 37 times, but completed just 23 for 194 yards.
The Rams' secondary also forced two interceptions (one from Wilson and one from Tanner McEvoy on a trick play). L.A. blanketed Doug Baldwin and didn't give Wilson his quick looks.
With the Rams' defensive line blowing through Seattle blockers, Wilson didn't have time to stretch the field. Jimmy Graham was the lone bright spot on the Seahawks' offense, earning six receptions for 37 yards on eight targets and a post-up touchdown catch.
