Rams vs. Seattle Seahawks: How to watch, start time, odds and prediction

Sean McVay turned 40 on Saturday.

Not that the Rams’ ninth-year coach planned to celebrate.

“What’s a good birthday?” he said on Friday. “When I’m working on my birthday — and if I’m working next week.

“That would be a hell of a birthday. That’s the only present I want.”

McVay was busy this week preparing for Sunday’s NFC championship game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field.

Gary Klein breaks down what to watch for Sunday when the Rams face the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC championship game.

After splitting their NFC West games this season, they will meet for a third time to determine who will represent the conference in Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.

McVay is 2-0 in NFC championship games, having led the Rams past the New Orleans Saints in the 2018 playoffs and past the San Francisco 49ers in the 2021 playoffs.

The Rams and Seahawks are playing for the third time. That’s nothing new for McVay.

The Rams have been in this situation twice before — and both times they advanced.

In the 2020 season, the Rams and Seahawks split their NFC West games, and the Rams won a wild-card game, 30-20, at Seattle.
