The Seahawks are going to the NFL playoffs.
After beating the Rams at home this afternoon, Seattle needed a little bit of help from the Lions to get into the postseason. Even though the Lions had only won three games on the road against Green Bay in their last 30 visits they got the job done tonight 20-16, thus ending the Packers’ season and clinching the No. 7 seed in the NFC for the Seahawks.
Fans should celebrate now, because they have an awesome challenge ahead of them in the wild card round. As the seventh seed in the conference, they’ll be going on the road to face the No. 2 seeded team, which happens to be the division rival 49ers.
San Francisco has beaten Seattle twice already this season, holding them to just 10 points per game. Odds for the playoff-matchup should be out shortly, and we expect the Niners to be heavy favorites.
