A great story fell apart on the last play of the game as Jason Myers missed a 55-yard field goal attempt that would have given the Seahawks victory over the Rams.

Instead, LA wound up with a season sweep, 17-16, ruining an injured Geno Smith leading drive that set up the field-goal attempt.
Smith had been knocked out of the game with an injury to his throwing elbow after taking a massive hit.
Geno Smith –
I have some concern on his right elbow after Donald forcibly stopped his forward motion on this throw. Could have caused some ligament or nerve stress. He was seen shaking his arm out too on his way to the tent. pic.twitter.com/XhBEXkxnuW

Drew Lock came on and the Seattle offense stalled.
The Rams overcame a 13-0 deficit and scored 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter.
The difference in the game was a Lucas Havrisik field goal from 22 yards that capped a 14-play, 75-yard drive with 1:31 left.
Myers had hit 15 field goals in a row before the miss from long range.
