The Seahawks locked up the NFC's No. 1 seed for the second season in a row by knocking off the Rams at home, 20-6.
Seattle will now have homefield advantage throughout the Playoffs, and the road to the Super Bowl once again goes through CenturyLink Field.
The Seahawks have won 9 of their last 10 games, and 32 of their last 40 overall. The No. 1 seed is a huge get for Seattle, whose point differential in their last 24 home games (where they've won an NFL-leading 22 games) is +357, the turnover margin is +22, and the Seahawks have 55 takeaways in that stretch. Homefield matters.
