The LA Rams vs. Seattle Seahawks betting line had Seattle as a -3 favorite after opening at -4.5.

Rams starter Jared Goff suffered a fractured right thumb in a 20-9 loss at Seattle on Dec. 27 and had surgery the following day.

Rams coach Sean McVay has been tight-lipped about whether quarterback Goff will start Saturday.

John Wolford replaced Goff last weekend against Arizona, helping the Rams clinch a playoff berth with an 18-7 victory. Wolford completed 22 of 38 passes for 231 yards and rushed for a team-high 56 yards.

"Jared is our starting quarterback -- the reality is that he had a thumb surgery," McVay said. "We're monitoring that every single day, and that's something we're taking a day at a time, but the anticipation is both those guys are getting themselves ready to go."

Seahawks safety Jamal Adams, meanwhile, said unequivocally that he'll be on the field for his first career playoff game. Adams' status had been in question because of a shoulder injury.

The Seahawks (12-4), who clinched the NFC West title with their victory Dec. 27 against Los Angeles, rallied from a 10-point deficit to win their regular-season finale 26-23 against San Francisco in Glendale, Ariz.

Russell Wilson threw two fourth-quarter touchdown passes to Tyler Lockett, who finished with a franchise-record 100 catches this season.

"I'm really fired up that we continue to be a finishing club and we find ways to do it," Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said.

If not for a 49ers touchdown with 23 seconds remaining Sunday, the Seahawks would have held each of their final six opponents to fewer than 20 points.

A key stat to know, courtesy of ESPN:

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had six passing touchdowns of 30-plus air yards this season, tied with Patrick Mahomes for the most in the NFL. However, he went 2-of-16 (13%) with zero TDs and an interception on those throws over the last eight games of the season. And he went 1-of-6 on those throws against the Rams, who allowed an NFL-low completion percentage on deep balls this season (14.8%).

The Seahawks pay $1300 for every $100 bet to win the 2021 Super Bowl.

The visitor has won the last five games in this series.  The Rams have won five of the last seven.

The Seahawks are 1-7 Against The Spread in their last 8 games following a straight up win.
