The Seahawks beat the 49ers Sunday to improve to 12-4, but their 26-23 victory wasn't enough to improve their playoff seeding, not with Green Bay and New Orleans both winning to secure the top two seeds.

As the NFC's No. 3 seed, the Seahawks will host the Los Angeles Rams in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. The Rams beat the Cardinals Sunday to improve to 10-6 and earn the NFC's No. 6 seed. Kickoff is set for Saturday, January 9 at 1:40 p.m. PT on FOX.

This will be the second meeting between the teams in the past three weeks, with the Seahawks beating the Rams 20-9 at Lumen Field in Week 16.
