The Seahawks are back in the playoffs thanks to a Week 18 win over the Rams, as well as a Lions win over the Packers, and they will now head to Santa Clara to face the 49ers in the Wild Card round. In addition to the 19-16 final score, here are 12 numbers of note that help tell the story of Sunday’s overtime victory:
10
Playoff appearances for the Seahawks in 13 seasons under Pete Carroll and John Schneider. The Seahawks have yet to miss the playoffs in consecutive seasons since those two took over in 2010.
269
Yards gained by the Rams, the third straight opponent the Seahawks have held under 300 yards, including a season-low 297 yards gained by the Chiefs, who have the league’s No. 1 offense.
3
Points allowed by the Seahawks in the second half and overtime. Seattle’s last three opponents have scored a total of 10 points after halftime, and opponents are averaging 15.3 points per game over that span.
1,050
Yards gained this season by Kenneth Walker III, who closed out the regular season with a third straight 100-yard game. Walker became the second Seahawk, along with Curt Warner in 1983, to rush for more than 1,000 yards as a rookie.
197
Rushing yards gained by the Seahawks, who had 198 a week earlier in a win over the Jets.
4
Consecutive 1,000-yard seasons for Tyler Lockett, who eclipsed that threshold with a 36-yard touchdown catch Sunday. Lockett matched Hall of Famer Steve Largent for the most consecutive 1,000 receiving-yard seasons.
