The Seattle Seahawks are not in a good spot right now. At 6-6, they are currently the No. 8 seed in the NFC, which is one behind the similarly 6-6 Green Bay Packers. Right on their tails are the 6-6 Los Angeles Rams, who in a direct face off would have the tiebreaker over them.
It does not get any easier, as the Seahawks must take on the San Francisco 49ers in a crucial rematch. Defensive lineman Jarran Reed spoke to the media at how important this game is, and what it means to get back on track.
The Seahawks, riding a three-game losing streak, are double-digit underdogs vs. the 49ers (+10.5 per ESPN BET). Asked about how much of a motivational factor that is, Jarran Reed said there’s a bigger motivator.

The season is far from over for Seattle, but they risk letting it slip away. The Packers face the lowly New York Giants, which should be a win for them. As for the Rams, they play the Baltimore Ravens, which should be a loss. Should LA and Seattle both lose, with Green Bay winning, the Seahawks would fall to the No. 9 spot behind the Rams.
Not to mention falling to below .500 on the year when they were 5-2 at one point this season.
