Julian Love told me post-game he was ready to take spray route from back - also called a swing by most. He was playing curl/flat responsibility in Cover 3 "Sky," but Bryce Young's eyes took him to McMillan and he jumped throw for first pick of the season.

Masterclass. #Seahawks

And then there were three...

With the Rams losing to the Falcons on Monday night, the #Seahawks can only be the first or fifth seed and thus have three playoff scenarios remaining on the table heading into Week 18 against the 49ers in Santa Clara.
