Round 3 for the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks' 2025 series takes place Sunday, with a trip to Super Bowl LX on the line. These NFC West rivals split the regular-season series, with each team winning at home. Both franchises are riding high, having survived the toughest division in football to advance to the NFC championship game.
The Rams stumbled down the stretch of the regular season, losing two of their final three games; however, they are the last team to have beaten the Seahawks back on Nov. 16. It took overtime against Chicago last week for the Rams to come out victorious, 20-17. MVP candidate Matthew Stafford didn't have a great game, completing less than 47% of his passes for 258 yards but did enough to have his team in position to win in the end despite some late-game heroics from 2024 No. 1 overall draft pick Caleb Williams.
Seattle comes in riding an eight-game winning streak, which includes a 38-37 overtime victory over the Rams on Dec. 18. The Seahawks won't have running back Zach Charbonnet, who suffered a torn ACL in last week's playoff win, but have been rolling powered by their No. 1 scoring defense (17.2 points per game in the regular season), who have held opponents to 19 combined points in the last three matchups.

Mon, January 26, 2026 at 7:15 AM GMT+9Matt Jacob1 player prop to consider ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship
Looking to wager on Rams-Seahawks? Here's one player prop worth considering ahead of kickoff:
Kenneth Walker III over 20.5 rushing attempts (-105)
A quick review of the Seahawks' backup running back situation: fourth-stringer Kenny McIntosh (injured reserve); third-stringer George Holani (injured reserve); second-stringer and second-leading rusher Zach Charbonet (torn ACL).
Long story short, the Seahawks have depth problems in the backfield. So like it or not, No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker III is going to have to shoulder the load against the Rams. That certainly wasn't a problem last week, when Walker torched San Francisco for 119 yards (and three touchdowns) on 19 carries.
The 19 carries matched Walker's regular-season high against Arizona way back in Week 4.
Now in his fourth season, the former Michigan State standout has exceeded 20 rushing attempts just eight times in 56 starts. If the Seahawks had their druthers, they wouldn't need Walker to top that number for a ninth time Sunday night. Unfortunately, given the state of their running back room, they won't have that luxury.

Mon, January 26, 2026 at 7:02 AM GMT+9Chris CwikSeahawks lose RB Zach Charbonnet to season-ending torn ACL
The Seattle Seahawks dismantled the rival San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round of the playoffs Saturday, but it came at a cost. Running back Zach Charbonnet sustained a "significant knee injury" and will miss the rest of the playoffs, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Monday.
ESPN's Adam Schefter later reported that the injury was a torn ACL.
Charbonnet, 25, led the team with 12 rushing touchdowns during the regular season.
That will put 2022 second-round running back Kenneth Walker III in line for a likely increase in workload, who just capped off his second career season with 1,000-plus rushing yards.
