Seahawks host Rams in 2026 NFC Championship; Seattle favored by 3
Cbssports reports the Seattle Seahawks will host the Los Angeles Rams in the 2026 NFC Championship Game at Lumen Field on Sunday, with kickoff scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET. The teams split their regular-season meetings, with the Rams winning in Week 11 and Seattle prevailing in a Week 16 rematch.
L.A. reached the NFC title game after road wins over Carolina in the Wild Card Round and Chicago in the Divisional Round, while Seattle arrives fresh off a blowout victory over San Francisco on Saturday. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Seattle is a 3-point favorite, the money line is Seahawks -157/Rams +132, and the over/under is 47.5; the all-time series stands nearly even at 29-28.
Cbssports notes contrasting strengths: the Rams lead the league in points and yards and committed the fewest penalties in the regular season, while their defense allowed the fewest rushing touchdowns in 2025 and ranks highly in pressure rate and takeaways. Seattle is 13-5 against the spread in combined regular and postseason play, riding an eight-game win streak and a defense ranked first in points allowed, yards per rush and yards per pass; the Seahawks also benefited from a rest edge after playing on Saturday.
