It’s not exactly a surprise that the Rams managed just three points in the first half Thursday night.
The Rams had their chances for more -- rookie wide receiver Michael Thomas just dropped what looked to be a sure touchdown pass -- but have also racked up familiar penalties and haven’t delivered in big situations. The Rams have failed going for it on fourth down and failed trying a fake punt on fourth down.
The Seahawks lead, 10-3. They drove 93 yards for their touchdown, then were basically gifted the field goal after the failed fake punt.
The Rams got on the board with a 36-yard field goal by Greg Zuerlein in the final minute of the half. Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman dropped an interception in the end zone just inside the two-minute warning.
Rams quarterback Jared Goff has taken a pounding from Seahawks’ rushers. Goff is 7-of-15 for 67 yards. He had a 24-yard completion to Kenny Britt on the field goal drive.
The Seahawks got their touchdown on a Russell Wilson pass to Luke Willson after a Rams penalty extended the drive.
