PFM JUDGMENT
Why PFM Rates the Seattle Seahawks Higher
The Seattle Seahawks have the more dependable defense. It does not need the offense to answer every possession to keep control of a game. The Los Angeles Rams are closest in coaching direction, where the teams remain essentially even.
Seattle also brings the steadier quarterback room. Seattle adds the clearer long-term football direction. PFM still has the Seattle Seahawks in front.

LOS ANGELES’ BEST PUSHBACK
Coaching Direction Is Los Angeles’ Only Close Fight
Sean McVay gives Los Angeles one place to push back. The Rams are only 0.3 points behind Seattle in Coaching Direction, but that is where Los Angeles' case ends. Seattle still has Sam Darnold at quarterback and the deeper roster, two advantages the Rams cannot match in this comparison.
