Penalties often seem to be an issue when the Seahawks play the Rams, a contest that has a knack for bringing out the chippiness in each side.
Getting the task of sorting it all out this week is Jerome Boger, who will be the referee for the game.
Boger has been a ref since 2006 and handled one of the more famous Rams-Seahawks game in recent years — Seattle’s win over St. Louis in the 2010 regular season finale that gave the NFC West division title to the Seahawks with a 7-9 record.
Boger has handled just two Seahawks games since then — oddly, each home contests against Minnesota in 2012 and 2013.
