pass interference call in the end zone that led to a field goal and
the Seattle Seahawks defeated the St. Louis Rams 24-7. The Seahawks
defense also came up with a big game, sacking Sam Bradford five
times and forcing him to lose two fumbles that led to touchdowns.
Marshawn Lynch scored for the fourth week in a row, although he
just missed on a third consecutive 100-yard game. Chris Clemons had
three sacks and came up with both fumbles. The Rams totaled 185
yards.
