Rams Intercept Darnold Four Times, Seize NFC West Lead

On November 13th, 2025, the Los Angeles Rams emerged victorious in a closely contested NFC West showdown against the Seattle Seahawks, winning 21-19. The victory moved the Rams to 8-2 on the season and dropped the Seahawks to 7-3, giving Los Angeles sole possession of first place in the division.

The Rams' secondary put on a dominant performance, intercepting Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold four times. Darnold, who had been having an MVP-caliber season, struggled mightily, finishing the game 29-of-44 for 279 yards with no touchdowns. The Rams capitalized on Darnold's miscues, turning two of the interceptions into touchdowns on the ensuing drives.

Despite a subpar outing from Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, who threw for just 130 yards, the Rams' defense and running game proved to be the difference-makers. Running back Kyren Williams found the end zone, and the Rams' pass rush disrupted Darnold throughout the game.

The Seahawks had a chance to win the game on the final play, but kicker Jason Myers missed a 61-yard field goal attempt, sealing the Rams' victory. This loss is a significant setback for the Seahawks, who had an opportunity to make a statement against their division rivals. However, with the Tennessee Titans up next and a rematch with the Rams in Week 16, the Seahawks remain in good position to make the playoffs.
