--LB Leroy Hill did not practice on Wednesday and is question able for Sunday's game, though his shoulder stinger is improving.

--WR Koren Robinson sat out with a sore knee on Wednesday but he will play in Sunday's game.

--C Pat Murray, who was on the practice squad, was signed to the Denver Broncos' 53-man active roster.

--C Donovan Raiola was signed to replace Pat Murray on the practice squad.

GAME PLAN: If the Seahawks play as efficiently and earnestly as they did against the New England Patriots last week, they will easily beat a Rams team that has lost seven in a row. What Seattle must guard against is a sense of complacency, both because they beat the Rams already by 24 points earlier this year and because they played so well against a quality opponent last week.

MATCHUPS TO WATCH: Seahawks special teams vs. Rams PK Josh Brown - Brown has missed easy field goals in three of his last four games. He will certainly want to do well against his former team and may feel the pressure if the game is on the line.

Seahawks TE John Carlson vs. Rams pass defense: Carlson leads Seattle with 46 receptions and has been coming on strong. St. Louis is giving up 225 passing yards a game, which is 25th in the NFL.

INJURY IMPACT: The Seahawks know that Matt Hasselbeck is not likely to play, which will allow Seneca Wallace to practice the entire week. Last week, when they thought Hasselbeck would play, Wallace got only 11/2 full days of practice.
