The Los Angeles Rams secured a spot in the playoffs and are on the verge of winning the NFC West after a dramatic interception by former Seahawks cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon sealed a crucial victory over the Arizona Cardinals.
The Seattle Seahawks almost got a massive lifeline courtesy of the Arizona Cardinals. That is, until a former preseason Seahawks cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon made the biggest play of the Los Angeles Rams ’ season. Down 13-9 with under a minute to go, the Cardinals were at the Rams ’ 5-yard line and poised to take a stunning lead after being down 10-0 at halftime.
Kyler Murray threw the ball off of Trey McBride’s helmet, the ball popped into the air, and Witherspoon made a phenomenal diving grab for an interception. A game-ending, possibly division-clinching interception. It was Murray’s second interception of the fourth quarter, and it seals a losing season for Arizona after a 6-4 start. The other INT was courtesy of Kamren Kinchens, the same promising rookie who had the pick-six and two interceptions in total off of Geno Smith in the Rams’ 26-20 win over the Seahawks back in Week 9. In other words, a safety named Kam and a cornerback named Witherspoon had clutch plays that hurt Seattle. The Rams are 10-6 and still have a negative point differential on the season, yet their five-game winning streak has them on the cusp of the NFC West title. A loss would’ve meant a “winner take all” NFC West showdown between the Seahawks and Rams in Inglewood. Now it might be a meaningless game. As if that wasn’t enough, the Cincinnati Bengals also won a chaotic 30-24 overtime classic over the Denver Broncos, which hurt Seattle’s already weak strength of victory. That means if Seattle has a few more results go against them over the next two days, it’s over before Week 18. Sunday: Minnesota Vikings over Green Bay Packers Sunday: Buffalo Bills over New York Jets Sunday: Washington Commanders over Atlanta Falcons Sunday: Cleveland Browns over Miami Dolphins Monday: San Francisco 49ers over Detroit Lions The Rams also win the NFC West if they get two wins and a tie out of these games, aka 2.5 win
