The St. Louis Rams swept the season series from the Seahawks, ending Seattle’s five-game win streak with a 23-17 victory on Sunday. The Rams won their season opener at home in overtime over the Seahawks 34-31.
Rookie running back Todd Gurley put the game out of reach with a two-yard TD run with just over ten minutes to play. The defense, which was in the face of Russell Wilson all game, also got involved in the scoring.
Akeem Ayers returned a fumble 45 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.
Gurley rushed for 85 yards on 19 carries. Case Keenum won his third straight start by completing 14 of 23 passes for 103 yards with a 28-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Britt in the second quarter.
It was the first time the Rams have won in Seattle since the 2004 playoffs.
