Rams Finish Off Seahawks 28-26

The Seahawks may have scored first with a field goal in their first drive, but the first half was all Rams which featured Tre Mason's first career touchdown run, and amazing punt return touchdown by Stedman Bailey. The half ended with a 21-6 lead by the Rams. However, as recent trend has it, the Rams can't finish off games as seen most recently in the Monday night game against the 49ers. That mixed with the fact that the Seahawks just lost last week was enough fuel for Russell Wilson to take charge. And he did with a rushing touchdown in the third quarter. After some back and forth, the Rams had to punt to the Seahawks when they were only up by two and had over two minutes left in the game. However, a fake punt design by John Fassel executed by Johnny Hekker gave the Rams the go ahead to finish the game. Yet, they didn't when Tre Mason fumbled the ball. Luckily the Rams kept possession in the controversial play.

Rams Pros - Tre Mason was the dominant running back this week and the offensive line was the major reason for that. On the other side of the ball, the Rams defense recorded three sacks when only having one in all the games before.

Rams Cons - The Rams let the Seahawks get back into the game led by Russell Wilson's 100 plus yards rushing.

Seahawks Pros - Russel Wilson showed why he is a Superbowl winning QB with his ability to get the Seahawks back in the game.

Seahawk Cons - Their own penalties ruined a lot of chances for the Seahawks.

Player of the Game: Tre Mason
