Much of the NFC’s power was concentrated in the NFC West this season, and it’s only fitting that two of the three West teams to make the playoffs will now meet in the NFC Championship Game, as the Seattle Seahawks will host the Los Angeles Rams. Both teams have, at various points of the season, looked like the NFL’s best team. The two sides split their two regular-season meetings — with both winning at home — and the winner of the rubber match will earn a berth in the Super Bowl, where either the Denver Broncos or New England Patriots will be waiting.
Kickoff from Lumen Field is set for 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday. The Seahawks are 2.5-point favorites in the latest NFL odds at DraftKings. The over/under for total points is 46.5. Before you make any Rams vs. Seahawks picks of your own, make sure to look at the top NFL picks from the SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times.

Rams vs. Seahawks betting preview
Odds: Seahawks -2.5, over/under 46.5
Both quarterbacks will be key factors in this game. Los Angeles’ Matthew Stafford is an MVP candidate, while Seattle’s Sam Darnold continued his resurgence and powered through an oblique injury and a history of playoff stinkers to drop a resounding 41 points on the San Francisco 49ers in the last round. Note that Seahawks left tackle Charles Cross is banged up, while second running back Zach Charbonnet is out for the rest of the playoffs with a knee injury.
The Rams are 12-7 against the spread and 11-8 to the Over. The Seahawks are 13-5 ATS and 10-8 to the Over. Los Angeles has covered three straight games and had hit seven straight Overs before landing Under in last week’s Divisional Round game. Seattle has covered in eight straight.
