oh absolutely one of the best in the NFL five or six games Telefunken Steve therefore Sam Bradford [Applause] from the end yard-line the pass is caught by Jared Cook and he's got a first down up across the 21 yard line Jared cook leads the team in catches with 46 one of those rare occasions where a tight end leads in receptions and they picked up 14 and those tight ends boat Eric cook and Lance Kendricks in my mind Chris have to play a big role in this game today those young wide receivers they will be up against it against those elite secondary player good supplements big plays out of 22 yard line Cory party emotional it's the Stacy Decarie Matt bar goes nowhere Malcolm Smith from his linebacker spot when you look at the Seahawks on defense branded me Bane has had a terrific year he had told him the day we'll have to be big at controlling that inside run game with Zach Stacy today was a nice play we just saw there from secondary [Applause] second down ten Kellen Clemens from the pocket throws and catch made for a first down it's Lance Hendricks the other tight end who has four touchdown receptions this year tell you one thing about Kellen Clemens Sammy you're gonna see it coming from the left ear formation Kendricks is here and he's gonna end up coming back here but Kellen Clemens when he gets that ball out on time and sets his feet his accuracy has been very good that's an outstanding throw to his Tiida coming off his most accurate game is already according to the offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer they're up at the 37 [Applause] here comes a reverse Chris Gibbons let's see I was ready for Malcolm Smith with another good floor that's the thing you get these undersized defenses and you want to get them going in one direction and here's Malcolm Smith are gonna go here there he doesn't take the bait falls back and makes a terrific life [Applause] all set back inside the 33 yard line of st. Louis some extra push and shove and going on it seems like after each [Applause] this is personal this is a [Applause] around lost a close one back in st. Louis second and 14 can't hide anybody it's our second Smith he is that's a calling card for these Seahawks on defense they score on the defensive side of the ball Kellen Clemens is picking himself right now for the decision to throw this just a panic throw late overthrows Lance Hendricks right through his hands a little bit high Malcolm Smith sitting in the zone waiting for 27th interception by this Seahawk defense that leads the NFL and they lead in the turnover differential department now it's plus 19 and for Clemens his sixth thrown interception of the season Stephen how Scott for the extra point [Applause] he's got it the Seahawks know it's at stake a 37 yard interception return for a touchdown for Malcolm Smith as Seattle in front [Applause] there were no division leaders decided when the day started but the Panthers have nailed down the NFC South the 49ers right now have a three nothing lead playing in Arizona the Saints have a seven nothing lead at home with Tampa Bay and the Seahawks will they control they control everything with this stuff and nothing lead on the number one seat should they win today we'll be home for the holidays and the playoffs nasca for Isaiah P to return for the Rams in the end zone Hill daughter let's check in with Joel Platt for a game break hi Joel hey Chris let's show you how the Saints got that 7-nothing lead drew brees 44 yard strike to Lance Moore for the touchdown his second of the season Saints up 7 nothing New Orleans trying to lock up a playoff spot back to Seattle Chris and Tim and of course if the Saints win that would knock out Arizona regardless of what they do in Green Bay Chicago deciding the NFC North but the Rams who Jeff Fisher said we wanted this game to mean something to Seattle at the one of their best shot he got in early [Applause] from the 20 Stasi a yard and he shoved back by McDaniel Zac Stacy came in averaging just over four yards to carry today his 12th start and until as the rookie gotta wait chance starting but once he's been in there over 960 yards rushing of course that was the number coming into the day and probably is it going to be the Offensive Rookie of the Year when you look at Eddie Lacy and some of the other guys offensively but Zac Stacy without question is in the conversation what a steal [Applause] Stacy again they can't block Tony McDaniel it'll bring a third and long and the noise Kellen Clemens talked about a whisper huddle they don't turn up the speakers and RAM practice to deal with the puck is here well that's why this is such a great home-field advantage in you add the elements and a good football team and then couple that with this crowd in the crowd noise and they don't just rage when the offense gets to the line of scrimmage they are ripping right now so it's hard to hear the quarterbacks fit now playing [Applause] third and seven the depot incomplete Chris Gibbons with target Lex was running all right with his 4th uh that's where Kellen Clemens is really thrived on third down he's been the best rated passer on third down this year in the NFL and his receiver was just gloved up there by Byron Maxwell terrific coverage incidental contact contact down the sidelines glad there was no call Golden Tate back to receive the pots of Johnny Hecker who's going to the Pro Bowl in his second year the undrafted free agent from Bothell high school here nearby Seattle for Washington [Applause] fair catch call for inside 30 knockin Smith his second career touchdown his first career interception for a touchdown as Seattle whip the lead

after going three about an opportunity from inside the 30 at sea on the seventh open room and a run game tonight if it just seems like the defenses are geared up for what the offenses want to do on the ground well the Rams have gotten so much better at defending the run and really a big part of it is their defensive tackles that was a super job by Michael Crocker's you see right there big number 90th there seems to be this perception around the NFL that people have figured out this Seattle Seahawk offense I'm curious see if Seattle has an answer today tough challenge hundred and thirty five yards after a loss of one again it's late swarm of rams bring him down Ali Ogletree who leads the Rams in tackles with the play it'll be third down well this was a play ago what's the hands to main Johnson to the face of Golden Tate and just sticks him right in the V of his neck does Tremaine Johnson and knocks him down we all know and remember Golden Tate that first matchup that the taunting Tate was awesome in that game with the two touchdowns I know they want to try to get in his head today physically on third and 12 the pass is caught by Golden Tate can he get the first down [Music] delivering data on that Monday night game the ramps dominate that over 200 yard advantage but this touchdown and then Lata he was penalized for it later fine now he said this week that he wouldn't do that again but he said the ramps chocol on a trash on the field and that's why he did it James Laurinaitis said oh yeah we remember it we won't forget it Justin felts on back to receive Ryan's punt

get that guy blocked Brandon me bein watch him push Barnes right of Zach Stacy as we painted it will be a long [Applause] Zach Stacy was trying to lead through the hall he couldn't get there here comes a flag late cuz he got shoved back [Applause] Stacy's only five feet eight every player's now personal foul unnecessary roughness number 31 in the defense 15 yards only an automatic first down that's on cam Chancellor and the Seahawks are the most penalized team in the NFL at home last week against Arizona this will give the Rams a first down yeah and you see there's kam chancellor right there as he's peeling out now he's coming in he's late to the pile and Zac Stacy already laying on the ground considered defenseless he can't go hit that guy that's a good call chance for one of three Pro ballers in that second area Darryl Thomas and Richard Sherman [Applause] Benny Cunningham checks it at running back now tuck that one up through the crowd number 72 of the offense five-yard penalty Joe Barksdale guilty this is the full star capital of the country for opposing teams and it backs the Rams up inside their own 45 yard-line [Applause] we're on this round roster has beaten the Seahawks in Seattle while a member of the Ray the pass is caught by Cunningham maybe a couple yards and plenty McDonnell part of that rotation on the defensive line some of those backups same I call him back he's got four to have sex Bennett has seven and a half flippy room as eight sex now they got waves of brushes that's the beauty of Seattle with John Schneider and Pete Carroll have done they have uploaded guys that can come in on that second wave and still get big time heat on the past from the 47-yard [Applause] kellen clemens masses shorts and Stacy he's knocked down in Seattle territory but it'll bring a third now an injured Seahawk looks like Bobby Wagner is mine at midfield sukkah dear player from Utah State has been terrific for Pete Carroll's defense tan quiz defense this year [Music] [Applause] Bobby Wagner Bing assisted over to the sidelines Heath Farwell comes in to take his spot at the middle linebacker on third and eight from the Seattle 48 Clemens has to set up in the pocket and he goes to the turf here in Seattle by a Michael Finnegan [Applause] as a sack for sure Clemens did not make it back to the line of coming off the edge and just watch his motor as he keeps it running Kellen Clemens has no idea that big number 72 is closing the gap on him and just body rocks him for sack number eight and a half Michael Bennett grams out fourth down from midfield they need to get inside the 41 so hacker coming on the puck could play the field position game [Applause] Golden Tate well belches down the outside the five terrific kick from the Pro Bowler who came in with a net average of forty three point eight threatening the NFL record that pot was 46 yards of no return welcome back to Seattle where it is quite a homecoming for Bothell native Johnny Hecker he grew up here wanting to be a quarterback switch to punting it out that Oregon State where they were in me but six quarterback units and it worked out pretty well he is on his way to his first Pro Bowl playing in front of his home crowd today with friends and family in attendance cheering him on Kris he's got family friends in the crowd Russell Wilson going to the Pro Bowl from the table after a couple of three announced first Hawks rowdy McLeod brought him down not after he gained 14 yards and watch this going to start this way and it's going to cut right back up inside for Marshawn Lynch that's a good block out on the edge by Brent Oh John Kamini just crashing that whole side down opens a big running lane for Marshawn Lynch who pops it for a first down [Applause] Godwin and Tate split out to the left bottom part of your screen who goes to take Russell Wilson after the loss they see the Branson shipping with tape after the defeat last Sunday Russell Wilson he usually shows up at 5:30 at the Seahawk office he was in the building by 4:15 look at a game tape at 4:30 Pete Carroll joined him after he just doesn't look at he says he's learned a lot in games yeah well separations in the preparation so he told me about a month ago that we'll always stick with me Mary works harder than Russell Wilson getting ready for a game let's see he's trying to maybe get into his tight end because of the pressure Zack Miller was in the area and that's what Russell Wilson does not need to do they're too good on special teams and on defense for Russell Wilson to serve up plays like this at times you just got to take the sack and live to play another down he got good pressure on him Ogletree comes unblocked goes he steps up in the pocket tries to flip it out there and that is not a fumble he flipped it up nobody was even third and eight from the twenty Wilson [Applause] [Music] Eugene Sims with the son [Music] it's the format we saw the Cardinals use which as Jeff Fisher pointed out to you they took it from the Rams originally that's the fiftieth sack of the season for the Rams and second consecutive 50 sack season as Ryan comes on to punt Rams in the last two years have more sacks than any team in the NFL you're coming [Applause] his photo [Applause] the question is is this a roughing the punter or is it a running into the butter Jeff Triplett on the move extra shoving going on at the 43 yard line Rams were going for the block I keep seeing Eugene Sims 97 right in the middle of all of it and Jim Fisher talked about coming after the punter John Ryan and make it a block in the process but more than anything forced him to speed up his delivery as he kicks it and then he can't just float him up there high with all that hang time that's what riot has become a terrific kicker directly he said the plan has changed this year to kick it high and give the special teams unit a chance to get down and have done their job allowing the fewest return yards threatening an NFL record of that department [Applause] ten seconds remaining here in the first quarter they only score in the game and it is sex in return for a clutch down by Malcolm Smith the fack Ellen Clemens throw another than one good run by Marshawn Lynch that equaled a first down Seattle has been able to do nothing offensively in their three Drive a lot of discussion going on there are four fouls on the play that's why it took so long running into the kicker number 34 and they keep the receiving team holding number 95 of the receiving team personal foul number 34 and the receiving team personal foul unnecessary roughness number 57 of the ticking fee by rule all those killings all stats replay fourth down penalties on one play two of them were on chase Reynolds of the Rams and somehow it's not threaded how do you three and one offset one another and they're safe Reynolds their 34 running in de we don't have time to show all the other infractions but as Jeff Triplett explained and we appreciate him discussing it's by rule they do offset even though three were called against the Rams and want to get Seattle so back it's a putt standing at his own end zone is Ryan and Bell tongue ready to return remember no Tavon Austin inactive again with the ankle injury it's the tick away [Applause] No now there's a flag down after the play boy that was time to perfect by locket absolutely perfect and I don't think this penalty is going to be on him look there is no halo rule pro-football you just got to give the guy a chance to catch it there's no fair catch a 54-yard punt without a return and the flag came late way late away from this play ball is spotted at the 28 yard line of the Rams Jeff Fisher's got to get his team together on the sidelines and get all those guys calm down there as they cannot self destruct in this game we have two of the more penalized teams in the league it's in Seattle's number one in that department you don't want to get off the rails either one and that's what zip triplet and crew were trying to officiate here we have four penalties on one play a moment ago [Applause] in fact that they're talking to Pete Carroll looks like they're looking setting up to wreak ich this thing we're 15 15 minute Brittany will set off we're at all yeah what's gonna go another 45 it's gonna be fun watching this let's see what another or not now they're setting up the Rams on offense there is no foul then player hitting the receiver it was block into it after the play is over personal foul unnecessary roughness number 50 on the kicking team 15 yards from the end of the play and that is on Ray Ray Armstrong who was one of the special team stars for Jeff Fisher Fisher was yelling at him at the end of the play over on the sideline and so that will back the Rams offense up 15 yards problem is is Ray Ray wasn't on the kicking channel with a return to the play and at the end of the first quarter the penalty against the Rams they have the football the Seahawks have the lead with a lot of stake in the playoff picture so they'll heat it here in Seattle is with begin to his second quarter to Bryant Chris Myers Jennifer Hale on the field you see coaches being talked to after back-to-back plays that had a number of flags body so the Rams who were going to be at the 33 just beyond their own [Applause] Seattle try to nail down the division in the number one seed in the NFC 49ers are leading in the second quarter in Arizona 17 to nothing Carolina has already won today when the a/c sound the Saints are leading by seven in the second quarter to try and get him as a wild guard Bobby Wagner is back in at middle or he takes in the defensive circle Zach Stacy the Patrick one Stacy the camera right on cue well the run games going nowhere if they can get those two inside guys blocked at being Tony McDaniel and Brandon me Bane and both of those guys have been terrific so far in this game you know when you're a division rival to them as we look at the first quarter numbers you see each other twice a year even if the Rams [Applause] and make sure the Seahawks and Indonesia personal emotion second intern slipping and losing yardage is Stacy it'll be third and long let's check haven't Curt Menefee for an update hey Curt hey there Chris the 49ers keeping pressure on Seattle in that NFC West and first place spot in the NFC at least that battle for that they lead right now 17 nothing Vernon Davis with the touchdown to make it a big spread over Arizona post-season pictures things are sorted out for the third and 12 lemons fire is for bailing whose guitar chants here I mean this is a physical game but we're seeing extra physical floor I'm glad they can call a penalty here on cam tan slur and you're gonna see him just with a vicious shot right there on Stedman Bailey I mean he was all over that concept I like the no call the helmet was right into the shoulder pad not helmet to helmet it's a great play by cam Chancellor that Pete Carroll's coaching staff has worked on that just play within the rules these hats Golden Tate his hip backwards and then flows down inside the 27 of Seattle they are coming after golden tape [Applause] he loses seven after a 48-yard caught by Hecker Eugene Sims just ejected him out of the middle of the field he's got a big target on a number 81 golden taking handle it though you know that deuce can handle it [Music] today's game on Fox is sponsored by Ram trucks guts glory Ram by AT&T rethink possible and by Pizza Hut order online now from Pizza Hut make it great this is a third time in the last four seasons the Rams and Seahawks have closed out the regular season here in Seattle first our voices for in completing the coverage was good jinora's Jenkins on Golden Tate and I think they're gonna get a hold out here on Russell Oh Combe trying to block Robert Quinn I will repeat first down we're getting quite a few offsetting penalties by rule so it will be first down Robert Quinn voted Chris long seven and a half sacks Quinn comes in leading the NFC with 18 and happily until Robert Mathis said a big game this afternoon unbelievable the inner Billy do you think about the quarterbacks that he's played against in this division and that Andrew Luck and some of the other guys Fisher said he's never seen anything like Robert Quinn and Jeff posts a lot of good posture 25 yard line that's the fifth carry of the game for Marshawn Lynch I play one good thing about Quinn and it's not just rushing the passer he is a terrific run defender and sent that edge and here's a good example of the watch he's gonna get inside there a VOC comb then he's going to take out the full-back lead block which gives his teammates opportunities to scrape over the top and make a tackle he is a very underrated run defender Marshawn Lynch has not had a 100-yard rushing game in the last five [Applause] he's got a first down Robert win put pressure on Russell Wilson he pops out to the right Chris long loses contained and here's the crosser right there his Golden Tate - slow rolling it across the middle of the fee and sitting down in between the linebacker safety take a mat as the leading receiver for the Seahawks for 56 catches and four touchdowns from the 37 yard line which the 41 left out up to 42 [Music] and does a whistle away from the player got the guys going on it [Music] here comes the flyer [Applause] [Music] after complain taunting number 55 in the roof [Applause] that's on James Laurinaitis and you see there's 55 their lower night as tackles Lynch from behind and Alec it was Alec oval tree and John Kamini they were going at it I don't think that call was on Lauren so the wrong number given and Jacques Armenians had his share these guys look they're an extension to the 35 of the round [Applause] running the beauty and their fom cable right there who's done a heck of a job when you think of all their entries up front and how they've had to shuttle guys through that offensive line and and it still been able to put up the kind of numbers says a lot about Tom Cable emphatic kochiya check it down to the quickl papa about 100 traveler an 11 yard run for Marsha Levine good block by 67 missin at left bar just absolutely blows Laurinaitis out of the hole pushes him sideways it was a nice running lane for Marshawn Lynch once that beast gets cranked up watch how this translates Chris to all the play-action opportunities later in the game for Russell Wilson if twins can keep of God for the 24 in the round take motion no play there's a flag a whistle [Applause] [Music] folks start number 76 new offense five-yard penalty compete first down dawn Russell of Kuhn the left tackle who has been battling a toe injury remember when they met earlier in the year the Rams dominated on the defensive where I should say on the line of scrimmage the attack and starting tackles worth therefore she out we had seven sacks he gave up 135 yards of offense to Seattle they had their number that day backed up at the 29 15 [Music] [Applause] and that's the beauty of Russell Wilson once they get a little rhythm going running the ball hit defenses on their heels a little bit and it's about number three getting out of the pocket extending plays and making plays as he did there a gain of fourteen it will be second down and one offensive coordinator Darrell Double [Applause] [Applause] and talk about these phones well and he's seeing the cutback beastmode laying right there and chris long just can't take him down as he's getting blocked sideways that's the beauty of Marshawn Lynch if you don't get a guy in front of him and you're taking planting ankle tackles at him he's going to break most of those going to the Pro Bowl he tweeted out he doesn't talk much he said I don't know why y'all like me but thanks for voting for me his teammates love them first and goal from the 8 [Applause] this time powering through Kendall Lankford to get down to the six and a half yard line and if Lankford doesn't make that play Lynch maybe walks into the end zone it was well blocked except for the one guy there as Kendall Lankford was able to bounce off the garden and there is a big running Lane there Kendall Lankford there he is on Joc kamini he's able to disengage and shet back out to the outside and get Marshawn Lynch just as he passes the line of scrimmage now second and goal at the 6 over 1,200 yards including tonight for the season for Lynch he's got 11 touchdowns Russell Wilson wants to trawl he's spread that around at the 10-yard line it's another sack for Robert Quinn 19th the season is a half sack line Mathis for the other fill lead first you're going to get good pressure there by Chris long then Quinn just really keeps his motor running as Russell Wilson steps up in the pocket Robert Quinn just keeps going and that's the thing about him now he can turn the corner you get your ads but his ability to first and then finish on the quarterback really this year is second to none in pro football loss of three now third and goal [Applause] that's a Wilson [Applause] with coverage might remain Johnson trying to get it to Marshawn Lynch of the gola great eyes by Chris long - sometimes when you're playing a quarterback like Russell Wilson you're not always rushing and just whipping a guy physically you got to keep your eyes on your target and as Russell tried to slip in Chris jumped inside with him then he tried to bust outside Chris got outside and then of course really good coverage by Tremayne Johnson Houska missed a chip shot that hit the upright last week that's when the Seahawks said we know it's not our day 31 a 33 for the year this a 28 yard tribe he's got it and the Seahawks and attend nothing

yard score all even a four team a San Diego victory and they get into the playoffs a San Diego loss and Pittsburgh grabs the final spot in the AFC listen Ted thanks Curt the scramble to finalize the spots in the seedings continues [Applause] the vision games at the end of the year Bassem but second and one Clemens it's Byron Maxwell with his four pick of the year you just can't draw on this Seattle defense killing Clemons talked about it yesterday in our conversations with him he said look I cannot make mistakes we've got to protect the football and he just threw that up there was nobody open pressure in his face Brandon me bein throws it off his back foot and another hope and a prayer for Kellen Clemens that ended up being picked on a second down one may be out thinking things given the possibility of that Seahawk avalanche here in Seattle where things been rolled taken advantage in scoring points Robert turbine section of the game carries inside the 45 and it looked like the pressure from Brandon Lee Bay who's had a terrific year made it tough on Clement look he is short quick and thick he is never on the ground Brandon me Bain they talked about having to get him blocked in the run game today the Rams they haven't been able to do that have - three rushing and it was good pressure there by the nose tackle who has not been known for his ability to rush the turban stays head as the running back at second and eight from the 45 of the Rams Wilson it'll be third down today that's just a flat-out drop terrific throw from Russell Wilson little man beater kid Luke Wilson matched up on the rookie safety TJ McDonald runs away from him the ball perfectly thrown from Russell Wilson Luke Wilson doesn't hold on the rookie fifth round draft pick been pretty good as a receiver much of the season for their vanity third date attest for this evidence listen stays in the pocket threw down the turf whoa let's roll - golden tape looks like that ball might have been tipped me I thought Ogletree may have got a finger on it ball carom down towards the ground in front of golden tape way third down has not been good to the Seattle team here's Ogletree still have not converted today let's see oval 352 gets his hands up absolutely got his hands on it Austin pennis now back to return for John Ryan so a change on punt return belts on what to the locker room after one of those earlier hits wait for to let it go and ranch diction down by Brandon leave a make that O'Brien Scofield with the special teams play this seahawk defense in the last two and a half games 11 interceptions [Applause] backed up at the Roni Zach Stacy a couple of yards back there in on the tack the RAM running game is just non-existent so far today and I think after that earlier meeting when the Seahawks want to type what in Zac Stacy ran for over a hundred they said we'll have none of that today is a Seattle defense it's like they're strong enough we know they're number one in the league in a lot of categories to carry the Seahawks hero to the Super Bowl absolutely they we know what they do in the secondary but it's that are getting after it and sitting down that one game for that there comes a flag on second and nine [Applause] won't start and so important this game Tim because if you don't win the game if let's just say you fall to the five senior Seattle plan on the road as a wild-card team in the playoffs you get the number one seed you get a week off and then you have two home games you win those you're in the circled absolutely this is the fast track to New York for the Superbowl for the Seattle Seahawks really be ashamed if their fans did to me this is the best crowd in its obvious Zach Stacy it'll be third and long for Kellen Clemens now I was talking to a couple of their big boys defensive linemen before the game and I and I said look here's the deal would it what do you got to do today so we just got out play their defense that's really all there is to it and so far so good for the Seattle Seahawks they last week they had four interceptions against the Cardinals still watch the game it's there as well lemons better be careful is Ernie from his own end zone firing high and incomplete Brian quick was in the area so it's Richard Sherman bullet overthrow man he had a receiver open Kellen Clemens but he's been under pressure today Chris and has not made good throws and sitting in your own endzone in fear of taking a safety I think you speed everything up a little bit as mechanics were not in sync and that ball sailed on Golden Tate back to return we saw some of the chippy after the play behavior earlier it's calmed down a bit hacker from his own end zone [Applause] take lives for the fair catch out of bounds just on the other side of the 50-yard line in Seattle territory there's a flag down at the 45-yard line Jeff Triplett getting a workout today holding number 26 the return team 10-yard penalty first down let's see if we see this here's Walter Thurmond and it looks like he was the one that held Isiah peed on the play I don't think Michael Robinson was even out there Robinson 26 Thurman activated after that four-game suspension available to play but not in these starting lineup for Seattle Seahawk off its failed to take advantage last time on the turnover they'll have excellent field position this time around well and that's the whole thing I think with your ear Seattle you mentioned it earlier Arizona survived four interceptions and was able to win the game last week because this offense could not have get out of their own way and take advantage of those takeaways and put points on the board and put the team away from the 39 yard line of Seattle Russell Wilson has it Kendall Lankford with the sack for the Rams that's their third of the day in the last 11 games the Rams defense has allowed fewer than 20 points a game and the guys in front of it a lot to do with it yeah an Ogletree gets it started he forces Russell Wilson up in the pocket but again in i sacked by the defensive lineman Kendal Lankford get your eyes on your target even though you're blocked Russell Wilson is going to give you an opportunity when he's either stepping up or stepping out of the pocket you've got to be in position to make those plays Mike Langford was there good luck second and 14 Wilson throws for Golden Tate who's across the 45 yard short of the first down and that will take us to the two-minute warning each team with three timeouts remaining Seahawks score on a interception return for a touchdown and have a field goal by an attending advantage of the football [Music] Seahawks with the number one seed at stake as they Lin it's all theirs meanwhile 49ers with a 17-7 lead in the second quarter in Arizona the NFC West with three double-digit victory teams today [Applause] five man protection this wall is coming out quick just past the first down step here comes a flag the fascist caught by tapir of course down nice take it the 43 [Music] offside penalty declined rezoning snap second time Chris long has been caught in that department no need for the penalty because they get their first first out on a third down try marked up a 44 of the rounds Russell Wilson who got his entire offense for Christmas he got him Xboxes he said they were all happy but the defensive guys were looking out of a little fun [Applause] the 35 before a Laurinaitis tracked him down [Applause] now running right to the left side here good block down on Robert Quinn bio comb and then he's able to get out on the linebacker as well I'm surprised the st. Louis Rams have not jumped into that double eagle front that old bear defense where they're covering everybody up inside and limited those run game of the running play between the tackles get the first Robert Quinn got their first of the Laurinaitis and third down for Seattle the clock running with just over a minute to go in the half again each team with its three timeouts Marshawn Lynch with 12 carries in the game so far look at the rushing yardage for the landfill and big mission today for the RAM was be able to run the football with Zach Stacy nothing doing against this Seattle defense the 37 Brian Walters is checked in at receiver first I loved the plan I love the adjustment by Darrell Bevell to get these receivers to shake free and some of the man coverage stuff stack them up run a little crossing route and watch state come free here and there's just no way which remain Johnson who's playing off coverage who's got Golden Tate if he goes inside if he was ever gonna get up there and make a play on that quick throw gain of 14 Seattle uses a timeout they have two to go coming up the Visa halftime report with Curt Terry Howie Michael Jimmy all the scores and highlights over around the league the latest on the playoff picture Denver winning big for that number one seed in the AFC the Chargers are trailing Kansas City we mentioned the Saints are up 28-14 nearing the half against Tampa Bay on the 49ers by 10 nearing the half in Arizona I bought all four divisions in the NFC coming down to the final week they say will subscribers at just above the 15-yard line I think you need to take your chances on defense in here if you're Saint Louis you've got to get back to your man coverage stuff Jeff Fisher's defense if they sit back and play those zones that's what Russell Wilson is just gonna pick him apart he's too good at reading coverage and knowing what you're doing and the ball is gonna come out right to the soft spot Seahawks will have one timeout facing a second down two from the RAM 15-yard line Jeff Fisher's team will get the ball to start the second half Wednesday January 15th American Idol its back and the judges are entertaining to watch what about the contestants check it out on Fox premiering Wednesday January 15 [Applause] 24 seconds one timeout cm Russell Wilson he's going to keep it kept so first down [Applause] way hard to stop Russell Wilson weenies running with the ball Chris when you're in a three-man rush that's exactly what st. Louis did there they had four down they dropped Michael blockers off in coverage and as those pass rushers got separated on their way to Russell Wilson Chris long Robert Quinn intend to Langford opened up a running lane and Russell Wilson pops it for a first down we want Marshawn Lynch isn't running Russell Wilson is and that's what makes this offense go Lynch and bottom of your screen is a receiver from the seven yard line first and goal Wilson throws to get rid of that as the pressure was on he went down needing to be thumped up Michael rockers and Kendall Langford listen inside he ya man coverage nobody's open and I give Russell Wilson a lot of credit for that I mean we've seen Kellen Clemens make a couple of bad decisions and a couple of bad throws today Russell Wilson caught a lot of heat for how he played and what his numbers were against Arizona last week I went back watch that tape there was not a wide receiver really open for the whole game and Russell Wilson is not going to lose it for you with a bad decision time to throw typically into Walter's checks in his receiver [Applause] mrs. Joey there's a flag down back at the 15 bring your Helena now it's coming back Triplette calling a hole that russello food is having a tough day and Robert Quinn was working against him the clock is a concern now yeah they're gonna kick it and here's the hole don't come right there on Robert Quinn Quinn takes an insight move and just grabs him right around his chest on the 94 and brings them to the ground nullifies the touchdown here goes the field goal opportunity and Alan Russell Wilson's fall but no touchdown on the board so with six seconds to go a 35-yard field goal try for Stephen Hauschka John Ryan the holder he's 33 out of 35 this year but a big swing in points Seattle now with a 13 nothing advantage check-in down on the field with Jennifer Hale Jen well Griffith the Seahawks seem to be a little bit motivated today be careful pulled out all the stops to make sure of that he enlisted the help of NBA a great Bill Russell also a longtime Seattle resident to give him a motivating speech before this game Russell told them trust in your team trust in yourself if you know who you are then you won't be nervous when the big moment comes you can play with confidence and that certainly seems to be the case this first half for us 11 NBA championships for Bill Russell and for that Russell he's trying to bring one to Seattle right now he wants to finish this up get a division title and that top seed and there's you could maybe question about the size or some of the numbers of Russell Wilson but but certainly his work ethic and the guy the way the team follows him as a leader there's no doubt about that that's really why I think Pete Carroll and John Schneider drafted them they said look all the wins all the good stuff at NC State and Wisconsin and everything he did we knew he could play but what separated him Chris was all the stuff he just talked about stuff he can't coach coming in at 4:15 in the morning at some point Russell Wilson's not even going to sleep after game she's as the pooch kick here to lend a half the Rams are on it [Applause] at the 30-yard line and the ramps will get the football to start the second half two seconds remaining here Kellen Clemens has two interceptions they've kept the RAM offense from getting near more bad decisions I mean the first one that came back for six from Malcolm Smith the linebacker of the Seahawks he I mean it was really a panic throw tossed it up a little high to Kendricks went through his hands and then the second one getting pressure that being Clemens from Brandon me Bane and dropped it right into a bunch of Seahawk defenders and Maxwell came up with the pick and now come Smith is interception return for the touchdown with a couple of Houska field goals and that's why we stand and 13 to nothing while Russell Wilson's numbers 8 out of 14 for 77 yards in the first half but no turnovers Tim we talked about Clemens two interceptions Marshawn Lynch with 54 yards rushing and Zach Stacy who dominated the Seattle defense on the ground in their earlier meeting in October in st. Louis he has 3 yards rushing the only touchdown came on a defensive play as we mentioned moments ago effect in that series Malcolm Smith was skinned it seemed like on every tackle and took advantage of the Kellen Clemens pick and that's Seahawk team with 28 interceptions up to this point they lead the NFL in that department head plus 20 in the turnover differential so far the number one seat is in the grasp of the Seahawks as we have hit back let's go to Curt Menefee in Los Angeles for the VESA halftime report [Music] in Seattle Jeff Fisher has has been his tradition that really chat with his team it's a half leave set up to his assistants he does it right before after they come out of the locker room before they hit the field follow your favorite team all season long go to iTunes dot-com slash NFL in-house get ready to kick it off Seahawks with a 13 doubling advantage he's two for two in the field gold apart but Isaiah feed to return love all the fire and brimstone stuff from Jeff Fischer to get his team to respond bottom line no kid Calvin Clements get that offense in the end zone comes flood Pete Carroll hoping to nail this down get the NFC West the first round by the number one seed meanwhile Jeff Fisher wants to finish strong and get to eight nay last year they won seven in his first season in st. Louis [Applause] it's a touchback coming out to the 20-yard line let's talk Seattle because we know they're in the playoffs it's just their positioning and Pete Carroll said after the loss last week he told us I'd rather learn the lesson with the victory but a meaningful game at the end of the regular season not a bad thing for this football team this week Europe to go forward into the playoffs some might have some doubts about where the Seahawks have been lately but certainly their defense there's no doubt yeah if you've watch their defense play you got euphoria bitching a shout out so far in this they have slammed the door on Zach Stacy in the run game they've gotten after Kellen Clemens really the question is offensively can they capitalize when they two days and one touchdown today they got to get those fix Clements on first down and incomplete here comes a flag he was trying to get it to Jared cook and Maxwell was covering Maxwell has an interception in this game [Applause] find the pants holding number 41 in the defense there he is out on the tight end Jared cook it's the jam and I couldn't see that right hand he must have had it up on the jersey of a much bigger offensive weapon Jared cook I didn't see it he Carroll didn't either questioning the call fifth penalty accepted on the Seahawks brands also have five from the 25 first down wants to throw again over the middle to Kendricks and let's head down to Jennifer Hale Jo Krishna Mehra these coaches are pleased with their offensive production we cared a lot to see some touchdowns meanwhile Jeff Fisher says obviously we are facing the number one defense in the league and we have got to do something to get our offense going so get ready for some creative and trick plays that run game Chris we gotta stay with him here like a game Zach Stacy short of the first down but Brandon me bang forget about him you can't run Adam you can't run away from him he is tracking these running backs down we've added a seventh year at a cow 315 pounds of his logged of the boat hits on him again and from the start of this game set the tone and if you think about it I mean Rams rush for 200 against [Applause] two interceptions already Clemens of stone this was Saturday he got knocked down the Tony McDaniel Smith Ram offenses nuttin gotten across midfield today that's how good Seattle's defense has been well if you're if you're Seattle as good as it's gone for you defensively and we just Jennifer talked about a Pete Carroll wants to see touchdowns from the offense they had the one that was called back on our russello boom hold but if you're Pete Carroll you better be ready for every gadget in the book against the st. Louis Rams no fake here they're hammers it away the Golden Tate from the 20 sonna mainly got hit harder [Applause] gather in the football Armstrong a big belly the first half scolded by his coach deliver the shot on tape well you can't ever say the golden Tate's not tough that's been on full display today the five-yard returned after a 46-yard clock today's game is sponsored by Southwest Airlines find our fares online only at Southwest comm buy the only 2014 Chevy Silverado strong for all the roads ahead by Sprint and by Pepsi live for now nearby the Fremont Bridge here at Seattle idiot most we are told the most frequently open drawbridge in the United States wouldn't open when we had our cameras on it one of the sights to take it when you're in town there comes the flash start 68 the offense five-yard penalty still first down that's a very low Chaka Beatty and the penalties remember the number one the most penalized team in the league that's something that you gotta clear up as you head to the postseason it had heard of last week and the loss of the Cardinals that narrow defeat yeah is the games get bigger you know self destruction also gets bigger and we've seen that be an issue here nan the last couple of games for Seattle just self-inflicted wounds with procedural family good good so puts Russell Wilson in more of a hole on first and 15 [Applause] came up with that well we've talked a lot about Seattle's today and their ability to punch it in the end zone here's McLeod out there and he just sees it the whole way is they're trying to throw that quick one out route out there to Zach Miller is look this Rams defense can score also feel they have three interception returns for touchdowns and to fumble returns for touchdowns so the Rams have a total of five on defense and that's what it might take time [Applause] second and 15 [Music] looked like they were trying to say that's the tensional ground receiver gilmore showing the place at the spot of the foul it wants it down third down there's the box right there the tackle box and if Russell Wilson gets outside of that he's got to get the ball past the line of scrimmage or to a weapon or near a weapon you saw it Marshawn Lynch setting up for the screen but he went in as Russell went out that was a clear intentional grounding the ball never got up yet to the line of scrimmage right so now third and 29 from the six yard line a chance for Jeff Fisher's defense to make a boy [Music] Marshawn Lynch with a big hole which successful but cross the 12 yard line where it will bring up fourth down for Seattle the 49ers have a 17-7 lead in the third quarter now if the 49ers were to lose her ties Seattle gets the NFC West New Orleans needs to win to get into the playoffs they have a 28 14 advantage in the 3rd over Tampa Bay Carolina won already earlier today so they have the NFC South Division and the Bears lead the Packers by 1 in the third quarter the winner there gets the NFC North Austin Pettis from the 37 to the Rams with some old [Applause] territory [Applause] inside the 30 where he gets knocked down the ball goes out of bounds referral walkins made the special teams would that is rare that you see a big return we've talked a lot about the punt coverage by Seattle trying to set an NFL record problem is is they were able to really double press those Gunners so Austin Pettis who just gets blasted there by Lockett had a lot of room to run because those Gunners the guys running down the sidelines did not get their timed up with the ball dropping in which they've done all year long terrific a 32 yard return that's the biggest play of the day offensively for the Rams but return record that the Seahawks had in mind gets blown out on the water on that now the Seahawk defense on the spot a place there used to be 31 yard line Seattle the Rams [Applause] they've got to get points out of this Clements cannot make best field position of the day Clemens wanted to go to harkey's going deeper it up and at the sideline he said was a league for the first out catch that's what they like about Stedman Bailey for a rookie third round pick Chris his football intelligence he's just gonna drive two defenders off stick his foot in the ground and come back to the ball he understands situations and he's real good at keeping those feet inbounds Bradford's familiar with his story is Tavon Austin was the eighth pick in the draft of West Virginian active but they also worked out Stedman Bailey drafted a both/and Kellen Clemens flew on a plane with Sam Bradford got a great matchup with Jared Cook in the slot here they're gonna run with Zach Stacy that's not going to do anything after a pickup of 12 through the air Stacy gets little Rams are just trying to get out of the negative in the rush department well Seattle is has been terrific really I mean you think back to the last Ram game 200 rushing when the Bucks came in here and slammed it to him pretty good since that defensive lineman knows why have reactivated with the physical card and have jumped right back in there [Applause] from the 18 Kellen Clemens incomplete too high for Stedman Bailey you talk about a Seattle defense that has the most interceptions in the league but that defensive line isn't allowing much on the ground either and this is what I'm talking about since that last game for about week ten till now this defense has said you know what we're going to be great tacklers we're gonna beat up well offensive linemen at the and then we get an opportunity to hit quarterback so we're going to blast them seen a little bit of [Applause] third and ten from the eighteen women's floats it in the air three Seahawks had a chance for the interception clemont's arm was hit as he let it go rigid Germans down in the end zone yet the leader and NFL interceptions with aid they usually stay away from this area and Richard Sherman is in pain and the two guys that are want the MVP Earl Thomas and Richard Sherman basically knock each other out and the ball falls on the ground and Richard Sherman's still down now he's up we'll check out Richard Sherman in just a moment on 4th down Rex our line to try a 36-yard field goal to get the Rams on the board he knocks it through part of the bus kicking duo they've ever had of st. Louis with Zuerlein and hacker and Pete Carroll was ready for Jeff Fischer to try read the lips here with us a fake just in case and you know that Jeff Fischer has done quite a bit of that as Fischer was telling us you know hey we know we're not going to the playoff so anything goes in this game well I love people around the league that and coaches say we know he's got to watch out for the surprise fakes or the surprise on sight kicks only it's ever a surprise when you're playing to Jeff Fischer team mean what are we ready every time Richard Sherman wincing in pain you talked about Robert Quinn oral Thomas and Sherman all Defensive Player of the Year candidates on with Luke Kuechly in Carolina but a couple of Pro Bowlers colliding and Maxwell in the mix as well [Music] you never have to wonder what he's thinking because the expression on his face always tells him and he knows the meme that would have been another great play in the end zone by Richard Sherman Orel Thomas did that that's one area now with all those interceptions a lot of them have happened in the end zone Chris when offenses are in scoring position and they take points right off the board [Applause] Doug Baldwin thousand eleven different players have returned kicks for Seattle this year was Robert turban last week until he had some fumbling issues so Baldwin happy to help out on the road of the Superbowl and you'll see it on Fox from MetLife Stadium while the Seahawks in control of that number one seed the Panthers have won the division Eagles and Cowboys decide the NFC East and right now the Packers lead the Bears 20 to 14 of the third quarter to decide the NFC North and the Saints are up 28-14 over the box wouldn't push Arizona right off the playoff map Seahawks have their eye on their third I should say their eighth division title across the board it's going from the AFC today Sean Lynch carries let's check in for a update with Joel glad Joel all right Chris let's go to Chicago the Bears scored on their first possession the second half Green Bay right back down the field and Randall Cobb back after that injury he and Aaron Rodgers hook up for the 7 yard TD it's 20 to 14 Green Bay and that NFC North showdown Chris and Tim thanks Joel and Aaron Rodgers who missed time back Jay Cutler is back who was out injured the Lions failed to take advantage as they lost today I'm gonna cycle so the division between Green Bay [Music] just short of the 31 [Applause] is what we're talking about earlier you got to get in front of Marshawn Lynch these angle tackles and there's McGee right there office site number one a great fake bite by Lynch but you try to hit him from the side and grab him by the leg forget about it 24 is gonna pick up an extra four or five yards every time you've got to get in front of Marshawn Lynch or make him stop his feet on third down to one by Marshawn Lynch who is the third leading receiver on this Seahawk team that he gets the first down such a good play by Russell Wilson st. Louis had an idea that that bootleg was coming in Alec Ogletree the outside linebacker right in Russell Wilson's face he processed the information rapidly and made a tight throw for a first down Wilson 9 out of 17 for 81 yards his net turned the ball over Robert [Applause] [Music] like they're the 38-yard line [Music] where you gotta give it to Seattle inside today their offensive guards who did not play well last week against Arizona and they couldn't run it they have provided some nice running lengths today getting junior Sweezy back in the lineup and requesting out at left guard second down five Seahawks protecting a 10-point lead with eight and a half to go in the third quarter Lynch checks back in m'lady [Applause] he just doesn't stop [Applause] and it is seahawk first off look defenses defense is always racing around with their level of play so does a power running back then you start getting defenders taking back side shots trying to make plays and running around blocks and that's exactly what Marshawn Lynch is looking for he gets to the line of scrimmage Chris and he's not touch he's gonna get you four yards averaging four point carry today Robert you know Robert when you talked about he had a sack earlier big defensive pointer of the Year candidate he made the Pro Bowl on Friday they got on the plane and st. Louis to fly to Seattle and Jeff Fisher grabbed the microphone and said if you're sitting in seat 30 for P and 21a that's where Hecker Twitter you have gone to that you've won a chance to go to the Pro Bowl and the team erupted and applauded sense of humor of it we had to honor those guys that 34b should have become to be put that guy in first class so let's hit the leading receiver in this game is six catch of the game of a guy who have been he's been the target of the Rams today let's check in with Jennifer on Richard Sherman well Chris I'm down here on the sidelines with Lebanese obviously in some pain but he's determined to work through it he's been alternating between running sprints on the sidelines and stretching out and sitting with his defensive teammates going over the game plan he is determined not to come out of a game this crucial at this point Chris will see if if they use Lane or of course F Walter Thurmond who is active after his four-game suspension that Golden Tate catch is good enough for a first down six catches 62 yards for Tate today in Sherman looks okay from here Seattle now holding the upper hand more than three minutes and time of possession in the Rams at times have made it easy for Russell Wilson and Golden Tate just playing off coverage you give Golden Tate a tenor a 12-yard pushing and getting a backpedal Chris forget it Russell Wilson's gonna see it quick he's going to break Mike the route and it's really becomes pitching catch for the quarterback to wide receiver [Applause] carry of the game inside the 42 of st. Louis Lynch and 80 yards today you get big backs like Marshawn Lynch you 228 230 pound machine you've got to get penetration Chris and get him moving sideways if these big power backs get to the line of scrimmage untouched you're rarely gonna stop them for less than four yards and you see they're second and six golden tape out of your screen Coco good second down six Russell Wilson it's Santa twice you know what I love I love the fact that Golden Tate knows he has a target on his back and Darrell Bevell just keeps feeding him the rock with the play calling he seems to thrive up and he drives remain Brock off the line of scrimmage there's nobody out there and cover excuse me true main Johnson who's sitting way deep back there and Golden Tate he just spots up and turns around and Russell Wilson finds him a gain of 19 he said after the taunting in their last meeting the refs talked a lot of trash factory which carries double-teamed and throw to the turf of the 25 yard line by Robert Quinn and Jamel Kujo finally a good play front side by one of the defensive tackles and Cujo got in there and made Lintz DBA from his plan a little bit then it was over Robert Quinn helped come clean it up no gain on the play just beyond the 23 it'll be second in ten o'clock running for to have to go here in the third quarter [Applause] the carry [Applause] see turtle get there do it over there trying to separate guys now once roommate Johnson's helmet came off Marshawn Lynch she's gotta let go of his face I don't know if the whistle had blown at that point November if the ball carrier the helmet comes off the plays dead right away but Lynch was the carrier Tremaine Johnson the tackler now well he knocked his helmet off with the contact and then just pinched his face and wouldn't let go [Laughter] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] alik Ogletree get called for this here it is on it's right there as he pushed marks on Lynch when Lynch was already a yard out of bounds I see that but I also see Marshawn Lynch with his hand right in the face of true Maine Johnson and would not let go Paul spotted at the 11 yard line after the penalty on Ogletree [Music] looks like the helmet just came off on contact first in said Seahawks Robert urban in gets the football if she gets down to the ten Bogle trader who has forced six fumbles and still getting into it [Applause] I'll tell you what and Jeff triplets got to start threatening some ejections on some of these guys you got to get control of this football game whether you got to go talk to each coach individually talk to the players you got to start threatening some ejections for for some of these extracurricular after the play activities well we had a play in the first half for penalties on one play here comes a flag Lake Lorenz they've been talking to what here comes another flare everybody loves a good fight this is ugly see the official telling the Seahawk players to stay on your side of the ball for now he careth on him to huddle up sportsmanship should not be lost in all of it that's right [Applause] after the play unsportsmanlike conduct number 52 of the defense [Applause] it'll be a first down also let's look the light condom number 98 of the nice pants [Applause] the dole as well and his actions gets qualified himself from the game the educator that was coming so Langford has good ejected no he totally didn't mean to do that stuck his arm out hit the back judge right in the cap knocked his helmet off but I think in the bigger picture the officiating crew is thinking with you said we're gonna start throwing guys out of the game Kendal's like I didn't know you were there I was just pushing my hand out to the right it's a lot of people standing around but the Rams defense should be focusing on the play and not chatting with officials not arguing we're losing the battle in the war here [Applause] it'll be first and goal from the 3 yard line of the Rams 10 the Langford still doesn't know why he's gone and you watch him right here number 98 they're talking they're talking now he's going to reach his hand out and there's where he contacts the official and what official was behind him to him another one was working his way in but there were two penalties against the Rams he just threw his palpable and here comes another flag they might start of ceasing how much closer you can move them to the goal line probably costing him a lot of this reaction it's not just the Seahawk team for the officials he's feeling the crowd too that door could slam see he still doesn't even know why he's out now he just realized if you're gone but you got to leave the field him until slam your helmet no three penalties on one play and now moves the ball to the one-yard line first and goal and the extra lineman in for Seattle were mules jean-pierre and Alvin Bailey come in playing a huge advantage here if after all of that Seattle can just slam it right in their face and punch it into the end zone so with Kendall Lyford number 78 and 61 are eligible eugene sims will come into play for Kendall Langford on the RAM line and he's hurt the numbers of the extra lineman for Seattle Wow [Applause] well she has it [Applause] excellent D thoughts Chris long didn't give Russell much to work with good play by Chris long good play by Alec Ogletree cuz they're gonna try to drop the tight end jean pierre and then roll him out to the corner of the endzone chris long does not give up contain Alec Ogletree splits the difference between the quarterback and the extra tight end no one for Russell to throw to well played they set it up good Seattle like they were going to run the ball absolutely Lynch in the backfield back at the two [Applause] I'll just steal your spirit if your st. Louis and it will fuel you'll fuel you if your Seattle emotionally three really good blocks there for Marshawn Lynch and now the extra point Marshawn Lynch his fourteenth touchdown of the season a

comes another flag and there's another flag more flags and we see it a parade [Applause] [Applause] Jeff Fisher's team has been penalized nine times today and that last series three on one play set up the Seahawks for Lynch's touchdown Seattle's not far behind with seven of their own [Applause] the Rams are not a team that's intimidated in fact they like to like to be aggressive and for no physical they got a chip on their shoulder I don't care who they play or where they play they feel like they to the underdog every time [Applause] all right after the play personal foul number 50 of the return team it's a half the distance to the goal then unsportsmanlike conduct verbal abuse of an official number 20 on the return team have to distance first down timeout we're getting some new calls that we have not heard before Ray Ray Armstrong a Darian Stewart that Stewart verbally assaulting it official yeah I'm starting to get a little embarrassed if I'm around player Armstrong and Stewart two of the five most sports the like conduct penalties charged against the Rams there's nerve coming into hittable here up here here's Darian Stewart was over on the side mouthing off to the officials DC head there beanie cap on Turpin up at the official we threw the flag enough Sonam Saxe Stacy can be shoved back it will be second down from inside the 5-yard line Richard Sherman is back out on the field by the way Sherman in good health and the Rams have been unable to run the football something that they had done very well coming into the game and you see the Jewish rush yards in franchise history history in the last time they absolutely shredded these Seahawks for 200 on the ground Zac Stacy has 12 carries for four yards Clements to keverage who gets across the ten it'll be third down back there on the tackle let's check out of the charters of Chiefs with Joel Clark all right Chris down to San Diego of course the Chiefs seven starters inactive four of them Pro Bowlers but Kansas

short of the first down and there's still some extra for where do you see killing the lemons run in there going alright he's trying to keep everybody off we don't need any more self-inflicted wounds via the penalty you know those five unsportsmanlike conduct penalties there were another three or four that were not a cell because you had to accept one or the other and really disappointed there's really nowhere for Clemens to go with the football he's had to throw that cheque down several times today to his running back Zach Stacy Seahawks are going to use it out timeout he'll have two remaining Kellen Clemens a free agent after this game has been realistic about his career where it's going next where Seattle go events kellen clemens 'when asked about seattle coming into this game so yeah we know how good they are in fact they're probably the best in the league they're a Super Bowl team well I think he was counting on and banking on being able to run it a little bit against them they have not been able to do that Seattle has turned the Rams into a one-dimensional football team with those young wide receivers at quarterback [Applause] they'll didn't say fair catch waves floor back up the 25 that may not mean anything [Applause] Golden Tate has been getting after it yeah he was a target you know since that taunt in their earlier meeting and they kept feeding him the ball and he's taking the hips and kept on going he's the leading receiver with seven catches and he has taken several big shots and what does Golden Tate do he pops right back up and goes to play another down on him touch the ball and family of her Cedar's geminus we still have a quarter to go but the Seattle offense with no Percy Harvin and Wednesday they'll make a decision unlikely that he will be with him through the playoffs and for Sidney Rice's injury what kind of deep threat they have what kind of explosive downfield receiver as Russell Wilson is brought down by Ogletree and that will end the third quarter the Seahawks have their hands on the number one seed in the NFC West with 15 minutes of the regular season to play Richard Sherman ok after that incidents in the end zone was playing in the last series Marshawn Lynch the most recent touchdown Russell Wilson getting the ball to Golden Tate Tate equaling his career-high with 7 catches today Robert urban the pack from the 19-yard water but catch made by Zach Miller the tight end never be without football cat coverage of every NFL game on NFL mobile call star star NFL and download now though you don't need the read options or whatever with Russell was we haven't seen a lot of that but Pete Carroll said we have that in and we just haven't called on it or defenses have taken it away but we're gonna hang it in the postseason I think it's more defenses if taking it away we may have called that play but a lot of times Russell has just made the right read and handed it to the running back because defenses are playing him free play for Wishon and that's made but let's see Luke Wilson made the catch but they ruled the play dead on the flag [Applause] neutral tone infraction pride in the staff defense on the nose guard five yard penalty her now like the Whistler usually it's unabated to the quarterback and they blow the whistle but typically it's a neutral zone infraction that's a free play for the offense I think the official will pull the whistle which is why Pete's so frustrated otherwise the terrific welcome to grab by by the rookie tight end everybody stop let's listen for the whistle [Applause] not to mention the defender was trying to get back he was not unabated to the quarterback they should have let that boy go right in here the wisher and that'll bring up fourth down yeah and I also think once the defensive player tried to get back and an offensive player jumped and it goes it'll kill play whether there is contact that looks like Luke Wilson is limping this is the last thing you want if you're the Seahawks you know you're in the playoffs you're trying to improve your seating position and you don't want some of your key players getting injured especially when you're already thin at wide receiver these game on Fox is sponsored by Nationwide Insurance nationwide is on your side by Bud Light official beer sponsor of the NFL and by Taco Bell sometimes you got to live mas [Music] here in Seattle he brought the card out for Luke Wilson the backup to Zach Miller and Kellen Davis the only other active tight end for Seattle [Applause] Rodney McCloud this hits him down low and couldn't really see anything there but clearly as Luke Wilson got up and got about to midfield he went back down and now they're gonna cart him to the locker room and Pete Carril was already talking about the decision see him blowing up that splint that's never a good sign they're pumping air into that splint around his lower leg that was it there's a third down throw that just kind of underneath in a game that Seattle has in hand certainly hope hope the best out of the circumstances for the rookie tight end and what they'll miss with him if if this ends up being a serious injury is really speed electric speed at the tight end position they don't have that with Zach Miller and kelan Davis a good time to head to Los Angeles for a game break Joel plan to update some things Joel that's right Chris let's go to the NFC North Green Bay back at it Eddie Lacy he changes direction he's gonna find the end zone and Green Bay is called within one it's 28 27 Bears Chris and Tim it's a good one they're in the NFC North and Joel the winner the area obviously gets the division goes to the playoffs as fans cheer for Luke Wilson Seattle if they hold on here the NFC West in the number one seed they get a week off and then all I have to do is win two playoff games at home to get to the Super Bowl Austin pennis from the 10 of the round has to do a lot to get up to the 15 before he is shoved back [Applause] a 56-yard boot from Ryan and a five yard return from Austin Pettis ram office takes the field trailing 22 3 the regular season to wrap up is Russel Wilson a golden table get ready for the playoffs Joe and I want to thank Dave Pearson of Wayne gamble the media relations staff of the Seahawks and from the Rams artist Weiland Pacey peers to their help throughout the season and getting to call Seattle games or Ramkin and we thank you for watching the NFL on five Clements not first down he's gonna go down what McDonald's with now five and a half sacks this year second of the game for Seattle what a year Clinton McDonald has had for Seattle and and here he is right in the middle of the defense and just watch him go this keeps his eyes on his target gets around the offensive guard he's been a different player since he got released and brought back he is playing his best football as a pro Brandon knee Bane is out with a hip injury he dominated in the first half three in love having a week off if they get that number one seed second out Pettis brought down at the 13 yard line that will be third and long and yet Richard Sherman is back out playing for Seattle in the secondary Stover 12 minutes to go the Patriots already winners in the AFC East will be the number two seed with Denver's lopsided score and that will decide the division Arizona has tightened things up with this over seven minutes to play they may be boxed out with 42:17 right there close out any hope the partners have of getting to the postseason because they stopped the run Seattle wrong situations in there passes cost like cook excellent web I can't Chancellor the Pro Bowler is though heat-seeking Seahawk I mean he saw that ball come out to Jared Cook Ron put his foot in the ground and just bursted Saffold down Chancellor seize it right here and he just gets on his horse kicks in the Spurs and said I am gonna rock this tie done gets no yards after the catch Jared Cook is a big dude [Applause] injuries starting to pile up Justin Bell Tong left early for the Rams we mentioned me bein with a hip injury for Seattle Saffold slow to get up Luke Wilson having to be taken away on a cart and the offensive line has been a area where the Rams have been hit hard throughout the season with injuries Seahawks have had to deal with that on their offensive line as well well they got Rodgers Saffold who's down on the field now out at left tackle today because they lost Jake long last week to the torn ACL and Saffold has played great I mean he was hurt early in the year they put him in at guard where he assimilated with no problem whatsoever they see him as a Pro Bowl guard then had to kick him back out to tackle he is in a contract year as he beheaded for free agency in the offseason he stays healthy is a very very good player we were going through some of the scores affecting the playoff picture the Chargers if they win they're in right now tied with Kansas City the Chiefs already have a playoff spot locked up as a wild-card with Denver winning the West and the number one seed and let's check in with Joel clacked old easy New Orleans in the playoffs with a win drew Brees he's in the end zone from 9 yards out his third rushing touchdown of the season and the dunk to go with it 42 17 Saints all over Tampa Bay Chris and Tim [Music] sexual Golden Tate says bring good saying that all game hacker gets an hour [Applause] now balance of the tape unable for the return the Seahawks take over on offense in control here at home today's game is sponsored by Ford only forgives you EcoBoost fuel economy and a whole lot more Rogers sample had to be helped to the locker room for the Rams after their offense failed to move the football Seattle taking over at the 39 yard line was just over 11 minutes deploy Marshawn Lynch 83 yards rushing and has a touchdown he plows up to the 49 spent five weeks since Marshawn Lynch has been up over a hundred yards he's gonna get there today Chris who the score the way it is the way he's running the football his offensive line laying down some good blocks up in front of them [Music] a gain of nine spotted in the 48 so it'll be second and one and they could smile when he's running like that that sets the whole tone for the Seattle office we know what their defense can do this time the revs knock him back to bring up a third down and Ogletree who had ten tackles last week according to the RAM coach's tape also got called for some penalties today it worked against the rental ramps penalized 12 times in the game today and now third down for Seattle again he's got the first [Applause] there's a story about Lynch back in the spring heat you know he's front count him and he snuck in they let him put on a uniform into their spring game McHale is a running back and we ran through the defense untouched and the coach there chalcedony don't touch him yet we don't want Pete Carril get the call from him he doesn't speak a lot at least in terms of conversation but when he has the football socks Fleming will sit up first up our tape touchdown what a day for Golden Tate the trust Russell Wilson's got in him Russell Wilson has not been able to hooked up with those deep balls down the sidelines of the last several games this is reminiscent ooh the first matchup jinora's Jenkins he's going to fall off Golden Tate makes a great adjustment on the ball and then watch him seek out contact bang said you guys want to hit me all day I'll deliver a little bit of punishment myself on my way into the end zone and take true to his word said he wouldn't on anybody he'll just get into the end zone and the football off that's his career-high eighth catch of the game 129 yards also a career-high and house God for the extra point and for Russell Wilson his 26th touchdown pass of this season he threw 26 last season to tie an NFL rookie record it may be the knockout punch for Seattle that puts them in the top spot to stay well the Rams privately talked about Golden Tate and what he did in the last meeting the taunting he lets his actions speak today jinora's Jenkins beat on the touchdown and that's a pretty good corner he beat in week 8 and beat here today engine Ora's Jenkins Norris Jenkins despite the lack of interceptions he's had a nice year voted as a Pro Bowl alternate [Music] I say appiied for his own ends or down at the 28 yard line ham chancellor with the special teams play we showed it earlier and you touched on it in the opening quarter this was the meeting in October in st. Louis when the Rams dominated the game but that time there was a penalty of the five [Applause] wouldn't do it again [Applause] does the same exact play again here today Russell Wilson trusts him great ball skills as you'll see it right here the last touchdown Russell will see just throws it up good coverage watch the adjustment there for Golden Tate weights on it and a slice back inside the only difference you notice Jenkins didn't fall down Golden Tate put his shoulder into him as he was falling into the end zone a confidence boost for Russell Wilson in the passing office Clemence going deep Chris Gibbons back there and a late flag coming in Gerald Thomas was running in the area there's another flag in the back field if you were with us earlier we had a a play that had four penalties on one play three were against the Rams and one against Seattle and they offset two fouls on the play he used two hands hands to the face number 65 in the offense illegal contact number 41 in the defend these buildings all set repeat first down Chris Williams and Byron Maxwell involved in the offsetting penalties they they just showed the 49ers score here with Arizona tied at 17 in the fourth quarter not that it matters truly a moot point the way Seattle is playing annoy the Saints away somehow st. Louis can find their offense here in the last nine minutes that might be that's how pathetic it's been on the ground the best run of the day for Zach Stacy let's check it for a gay break with Curt Menefee if it seems beat the Chargers then Pittsburgh's in the playoffs Kansas City's Ryan suck-up misses from 41 yards out at the end of regulation we're going the overtime tied at 24 San Diego wins there it Chris thanks Curt still a lot to be decided and games going down to the wire the Bears are leading Green Bay by one in Chicago with three and a half to play the Rams hurry to the line Rams don't even have a hundred yards of offense in this game we've got eight minutes to go in the fourth quarter the Rams have run 38 plays per 90 seven of them on the ground on first down the pass is caught by cook you know this Ram team it was an amazing team that they were able to win four of their last six with their backup quarterback and a rookie running back who did even start until a month or so into the season but Jeff Fisher will have the Rams will have the number two pick in the draft because they own Washington's first round selection Houston will have the number one choice in the draft of the Rams will have their own pick as well matches low for Cook how much you want to bet that pick is for sale to somebody who needs a quarterback they'll stick with Sam Bradford and go continue to upgrade this defense [Applause] Marshawn Lynch gave his shoes to Elena what a nice gesture because then [Applause] it's a nice momentum this season for Seattle when it's 13th game pretty good sign for Lin's cutting that tape off he's done for the afternoon Clemens throw is caught by Pettis he's going to get a first down and slip into Seattle territory just over four minutes left in New Orleans where the Saints 4217 lead over Tampa Bay puts them in as a wild-card there's leading Green Bay by a point to two minutes to go in Chicago is incomplete Givens was over there Sam Bradford was off to the best start in his career injured in the seventh game he's the quarterback of the future they haven't under contract for two more years he's here with the team in looking and no no rush on the decision for him as he just said two more years left on his deal talk to Jeff Fisher about it yesterday Sam will come back healthy as what Jeff told us he's our guy and rightly so [Applause] on 2nd and 10 Clemens will run and slide and as he told us it will realize how fast you can run until you're running for your life out there he's always been an underrated athlete my opinion Kellen Clemens he hasn't played well today a couple of bad decisions now they have been able to run the ball so they've been one-dimensional but certainly the two interceptions the first one that came back for a touchdown from Malcolm Smith bad decision by the better on 3rd and 7 the throw is Claude can he get the first down yeah Jared Cook pushes it we'll check the spot but this is go for it territory for the Rams who trail by 24 yeah it looks like he yeah he's gonna be right on the line not official and it moved two chains anyway we'll make it efficient there you go Clemens from burns Oregon then played it Oregon has family and friends here watching Pass delivered the Stedman Bailey [Music] under six minutes to play I'll tell you what I think when you look at these Rams I mean Jeff Fisher likes this young receiver core there without Tavon Austin today I think they need a veteran in the group I really do to show them the way in preparation the guy who's just in this league they're very very young at wide receiver Saks Stacy - unless something dramatic happens here Tim won't get his thousand-yard season and it was something that I know the Rams downplayed the stats they wanted to win the game but for as hard as he has worked as popular a teammate they were hoping to give them an opportunity yes 14 carries for 15 yards today not a lot of rookies had come in and posted a thousand yard seasons Benison Dickerson I think the only one what a catch bikes Patrick's but what handed grab to set up the Rams and the six yard line its first and goal you think Clemens meant to throw it there because he just threw him open Hendricks was covered to the inside throws it to the back shoulder he may have been thrown it to Stedman Bailey to the outside but a great adjustment by Kendricks 21 yard gain end zone though short of the end zone Augusta Kendricks who's knocked back to the line of scrimmage Bobby wag they're all over him and a receiver running deep Clements elected to go underneath and it will be second and goal he's had to go underneath quite a bit in this game today and that's always risky business against Seattle's defense number one their ability to intercept you number two they are fierce tackler this from the two yard line Penn's home touchdown he got it to Jerry cook a spinning grabbed by the tight-end for his fifth touchdown of the season and for Clemens his eighth touchdown pass gonna run the quick out route option route on Bobby Wagner very good throw Wagner and decent coverage on the backside hipped up with Jared cook Clement puts it out in front number 89 cooked good throw and they're going for two the Rams trying a two-point conversion with the score 27 to 9 and just over four minutes to play a 71 yard drive that took over to a five five minutes or so and took 13 plays for Brian Schottenheimer in the office [Applause] Clemens throws got it Jared cook no he didn't hold on Maxwell knocked it out I thought he had it long enough well if his feet were down and there was any element of time whatsoever that that should have been a two-point conversion that should have been good see how long before Maxwell pops it out both feet in who's that right foot down what's that right foot left down right toe drags pop out looked like he was looking at the ramp waiting for the rep to put his hands up well it alert play by Maxwell Rams were three out of three on two-point conversions they don't get it there [Music] when we see the onside kick 49ers have the football under two minutes to go and tied [Music] over time the Chargers needing a win to make it into the playoffs if they lose the Steelers will go one of them an amazing journey that has been for Pittsburgh [Music] Panthers look like they're gonna be the number two seed one year for Rob Rivera Cam Newton weighing one today to win the NFC South yeah and I don't know how Ron Rivera is not coach of the year Seahawks cover it and be inside the 44 Zach Miller making the grab on the onside kick and for the Seahawks who at one time were 11 and 1 they dropped to a a 3 of course they've they fell to a couple of teams in the division of the NFC West the Cardinals and the 49ers the defense has never left them I guess their offense if you're going to nitpick as they fine-tune for their playoff run that's where they're gonna look well it was good to see Golden Tate play really really well today with a big you know bull's-eye on his chest Russell Wilson found him I think there was only one other completion so far in this game to a wide receiver that was Lockett otherwise it's been all Golden Tate they've been able to run the football the defense has been outstanding but you're right I mean the number one seed they'll be my favorite in the NFC to get to New York and play in the Super Bowl but their passing game as a course collectively is gonna have to pick up the pace Carroll said you know it's a reminder of actually Russell Wilson called it a wake-up call but Pete Carroll said you know what happened last week reminds our team that we can lose at home we're not invincible and after today after this game we mean in the Seahawks were in elimination games I mean we still have to win to to get to the Super Bowl yeah I think one thing about Pete Carroll that's great whether they're at home or on the road is he coaches every game like it's playoff atmosphere and he told us out a couple of weeks ago he's that we have played every game like it's a playoff in terms of how we look at it what our perception is and now when it is real and it's authentic it really allows us to play pressure free and they've done that today on their way to their 13th win and we make a lot about how they win at home but they said a what record for the road record this year going six and two that was another hurdle they had to clear but they won't have to worry about that if they hold on here they'll have an off week wait to see who they play and look who who's got believed here in the NFC North battle with Aaron Rodgers and Jay Cutler and 38 seconds to go in that game now the 49ers have gone in front [Applause] the owner Paul Allen with John Schneider they general manager who has worked so well with Pete Carroll here is gets knocked down let's get a game break check in with Curt Menefee Packers fourth and eighth down by a point this is why they wanted Aaron Rodgers back keep the play alive his first came back same story for Randall Cobb there's the neck for what might be the game-winner it put him up they missed the two-point conversion 33 28 less than a minute to go to go to the playoffs Kristen unbelievable that Aaron Rodgers could lead them back and there's John Schneider who 14 starters Tim on this Seattle team currently our draft picks starting at 2008 and when Pete Carroll of course they went to the playoffs P Carroll won the division with at 7 and 9 record said it's a lot different now with a 13 win season but there I is on the big drives and you got to give them a lot of credit for how they came in and really flipped this roster and I remember doing games their first year here and all the transactions trying to get the right guys on this football team connect the dots between your offense your defense and special teams and they have played great team football in all three phases this season and they burned the number one seed Russell Wilson looks to throw his armor on and dumps it all pass complete down to the 30 Derrick Coleman the backup fullback you know you think about draft picks it's one thing but the trade to get Marshawn Lynch they give up a fourth and a fifth round pick and he has been the workhorse since he has arrived in Seattle he has carried the load he had the drafting of Russell Wilson last year and that's your offense and what Pete Carroll has done with his defense even with the change in defensive coordinator they keep rolling right along we've hit the 2-minute mark in Seattle Seahawks lead at 2709 every week had our crew gathers we travel to where the games are we need all the help from our production crew break Phillips with 50 years in sports television our technical producer helps bring the crews together the best video tape people all the way around and give it up after this going to relax in Austin Texas a veteran we always appreciate the service to our country and thank him for his fine work in television wish him well very likeable guy Frank Phillips and every time I look at him I think of Air Koryo he does look a little a duck or a little like Don Coryell speaking of the Chargers he had overtime with Kansas City and I know Curt Menefee will give us an update man just a moment the Bronco game is final they went 34 to 14 the Wayne one wins 3420 the Seahawks ready to roll this out for Seattle the last time they were the number one the only other time they were the number one seed in the NFC Matt Hasselbeck led them to the Super Bowl of course but five of the last six number one seeds in the NFC Pete Carroll knows you got to be careful they failed to make it to the Super Bowl and and I see all that in this league expecially in the playoffs play your best or get beat but with this home-field advantage in this incredible 12th man and how they fuel this football team it is going to be a challenge for any of the best teams in the NFC to come in and beat these number one Seahawks Seahawks win 13 games for the second time in franchise history last time they 113 was when they went to that Super Bowl and they win the NFC West whole field avenge 8th division title the second under Pete Carroll Tim and I and the booth want to thank Tim's petrarca and Emmett McGuire for their help all season long Mike Burks our producer director Mike Frank associate director Brian Biederman broadcast associate is Mike's truck Kevin McCluskey on audio does a terrific job for us studio show produced by Phil Richards directed by Stephanie Medina [Applause] the 12th man chanting Seahawks they have a voice they have a hand in the success of this team how is Russell Wilson and the seal our team really got a bounce back after that home loss I think this shows you 27 and 9 the Rams will finish 7 to 9 Jeff Fisher after his second year and Pete Carroll leading the Seahawks into the playoffs as the number one seed the road to the Super Bowl will go through Seattle as long as the Seahawks keep winning for Tim Ryan I'm Chris Myers our entire crew while you're watching the NFL on Fox let's get bonus coverage to Kenny Alberta
