What better time for the Seahawks defense to look like they have hit their stride. With a division-clinch in sight, the Seahawks re-hashed some old tactics to hold the Los Angeles Rams' offense without a touchdown in a 20-9 win. Seattle finished the game with a defensive DVOA of -35.4%, their best performance of the season, and locked down the NFC West title.
The Seahawks defense has been gaining steam of late, so perhaps a dominant performance like this was only a matter of time. By DVOA, their last four games each rank among their top six defensive outings this year.
