00:00Meanwhile, the Seahawks will be favored to win the Super Bowl if they win Sunday.
00:05Their defense is playing out of this world.
00:07That game that they played against the Rams a couple of weeks ago on Thursday night
00:09was arguably the best Thursday night game of the season.
00:12They're two-and-a-half-point favorites, total 47-and-a-half.
00:16I expect the Rams, Joe, to come in and play very well in this one,
00:21but from what I've seen from Seattle, they do seem like the best team in the NFL right now,
00:27and I think that line is fair.
00:28Two-and-a-half maybe becomes three, I would say, by kickoff.
00:31Well, what we've learned, though, in these spots, Craig, is that the best teams don't always win.
00:36And again, we've got another round three, a trilogy going on here, right, in the postseason
00:42because these two teams, division rivals, we watched the Seahawks win 38-37 in overtime in Week 16.
00:49That was a Thursday night game.
00:51The line in that game was Seattle minus one-and-a-half to minus two-and-a-half.
00:55The total hovered around 42-and-a-half.
00:58The Rams had won 21-19 five weeks prior in Week 11.
01:04The Rams were a three-and-a-half-point favorite.
01:06The total was much higher, 48-and-a-half to 49-and-a-half.
01:11So we kind of went under in that Week 11 game.
01:15We went over, obviously, in that Week 16 game.
01:18So the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.
01:22But my question, Craig, is which Sam Darnold do we get?
01:25Because apparently we got one against the 49ers that did not need to throw the ball or test that oblique injury very much.
01:33He's going to have to throw the ball in this game against the Rams.
01:36The Rams are not the 49ers.
01:38So he is going to be tested.
01:41We're going to see how much that oblique injury is going to be an issue.
01:45But do not be shocked if it's Jared Stidham versus Drew Locke.
01:49We're going to see how much that oblique injury is going to be tested.
