    NFL: ST LOUIS (0-6) at SEATTLE (3-3)

    <h3>Rams seeking first win against Seahawks</h3>



    St Louis (0-6) at Seattle 3-3 Sunday 4:15 pm EDT


    SEATTLE (Ticker) -- It was supposed to be a division showdown.It's turned into much less.


    The St. Louis Rams look to break into the win column when theyvisit the Seattle Seahawks in an NFC West matchup Sunday.

    The Rams are one of two winless teams in the league (Miami isthe other), a startling development for a team that was expectedto contend for the division crown.


    Once know as "The Greatest Show on Turf," St. Louis has beenfeeble on both sides of the ball. The Rams have scored just 73points in six games, including a 31-point outburst in a loss toArizona.


    In their other five losses, St. Louis has managed just 42 pointsand has been held to a touchdown or less three times as it hasmatched the worst start in franchise history, set in 1962, whenthe franchise was located in Los Angeles.


    Sure, injuries to workhorse running back Steven Jackson (groin)and quarterback Marc Bulger (ribs) have hurt, but the Ramsstaggered to an 0-3 start with both players relatively healthy.

    Bulger, after sitting out the past two games to let his ribsheal, said he expects to play this weekend. The Rams could usehim after watching backup Gus Frerotte throw five interceptionsin Sunday's 22-3 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens.


    Jackson, who rushed for 1,528 yards and scored 16 touchdowns in2006, likely will miss his fourth straight game.


    The Seahawks, meanwhile, have come crashing back to the pack inthe NFC West after consecutive drubbings at the hands of thePittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints.


    Seattle won three of its first four games before being humbledat Pittsburgh, 21-0, on October 7.


    Returning home against the winless New Orleans seemed to be theperfect tonic, but the Saints jumped out to a 21-0 lead andcoasted to victory.


    An anemic running game has been the culprit behind the recentslump, with former All-Pro running back Shaun Alexander limitedto a combined 60 rushing yards in the two losses.


    That forced quarterback Matt Hasselbeck to attempt 43 passes,completing 26 for 362 yards, two TDs and one interception.

    The Seahawks have won the last four meetings, including a pairof two-point victories last season.
