Summary

The Seattle Seahawks earned a victory at home over their division rival Los Angeles Rams and now head for the road to close out the final two games of the 2025 regular season. Can they finish strong enough to be able to return home for their playoff run? We kick off the show by taking a look back at the win over the Rams and some of the key moments. Is there one area where Rams fans have a legitimate gripe about the two-point conversion call that tied the game up for the Seahawks?

We also talk about the Seahawks record against teams that are set to make the playoffs this season. They currently stand at 4-2, and they have a chance to improve that record over these final two weeks of the season if the Panthers are able to win their division. That record comes with a slightly disturbing stat -- or maybe a stat that provides optimism depending on your perspective. Either way, it's going to be something they likely have to overcome each week. Is there anything that should worry us about this matchup with the Panthers? We get into some of the reasons why the Panthers find themselves in position to win their division.

In the second half of the show, we discuss the Seahawks six players selected for the Pro Bowl. Sam Darnold was outside the top 10 in fan voting, yet earned a spot over some high end quarterbacks in the NFC. Byron Murphy received more fan votes than any other defensive tackle, yet he was snubbed. The New York Jets franchise finds itself in the spotlight of the Do Better segment along with an Australian snake. Better at life honors go to a mammal of unusual size and Seahawks backup who deserves more praise than he's received this past week.

0:19.2	We still beat the stupid Rams more than a week ago.

Like, it doesn't have to be Mary. I'd take just a nice, steady average New Year. That'd be great. Might be a step up for some people. Yeah. Just not a bad new year. Like, let's just not make it like a 2020 year.

1:13.6	Yeah, that's a good, good to not set your bar real high.

1:26.3	Well, our Seattle Seahawks exceeded expectations with that win over the stupid Los Angeles Rams.
1:33.1	And we were expecting a win just because we were due for it.
1:38.7	But gosh, there was a time where I think every single one of us as a 12 out there was looking at this game as over.
