The Seattle Seahawks' playoff fate is down to two options after the Los Angeles Rams lost to the Atlanta Falcons.

The Falcons have been eliminated from playoff contention for weeks, but the Monday Night Football matchup between Atlanta and the Rams still had the potential to impact the NFC playoff picture, and particularly the NFC West. But for any of that to happen, the Rams needed to win. That didn’t happen.

Starting defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus has also been ruled out for Week 14. Dorlus has a team-high six sacks this season. Former second-round pick Ruke Orhorhoro will replace Dorlus in the lineup against the Seahawks. Check out the Falcons' starting lineups for Week 14, including Pro Football Focus season grades for each player.

The Seattle Seahawks dominated the Atlanta Falcons 37-9 on the road. Seattle has improved to 10-3 on the year, securing their second-straight 10+ win season for the first time since 2019-2020. Meanwhile, the Falcons fall to 4-9, which is their seventh-consecutive year with a losing record.

Sean McVay revealed his plans for the Rams’ starters in what will be a meaningless Week 18 contest against the Cardinals.

The Seahawks come to town holding a highly coveted NFC wild-card spot and need a win to keep pressure on the NFC West-leading Los Angeles Rams. As for the Falcons, they have nothing to really play for other than pride and head coach Raheem Morris' job.

The Rams rally from a 21-0 deficit, but their last-gasp drive comes up short in a 27-24 loss to the Falcons that complicates their quest for the No. 5 seed.

Bijan Robinson rushed for 195 yards and one touchdown, and the Falcons took a 21-0 lead before a furious second-half rally by the Rams tied the game at 24 with 2:46 remaining in the fourth. But Zane Gonzalez made a 51-yard field goal with 25 seconds left for the game-winner.

The Rams suffered a bad loss to the Falcons on Monday night, but their chances of earning the No. 5 seed aren't dead yet.
