NFC Notes: Zach Charbonnet, Kyren Williams, 49ers, Rams, Seahawks

49ers

Rams

The Rams held on to a 44-42 win in a shootout against the Bills in Week 14 to improve to 7-6, keeping them up to pace in postseason races. Los Angeles RB Kyren Williams feels they learned a significant amount about the makeup of the roster following a gutsy win over a contender.

โ€œIt tells us a lot,โ€ Williams said. โ€œIt tells us our toughness, but itโ€™s kind of who we are as a team. It doesnโ€™t matter who we play. I just look at everybody like a faceless opponent. I feel like we just have to go out there each and every Sunday and put on the best brand of football that we know how to play. Beating a team like this is a huge confidence boost for us, but we knew we were going to come in here and beat them, so we got to continue to keep going like that.โ€

Seahawks

With RB Kenneth Walker II out with a calf injury, Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet stepped up for a career day in a pivotal win over the Cardinals. Seattle HC Mike Macdonald talked about how Charbonnet is more than capable of stepping in and playing a larger role.

โ€œKen is obviously a dynamite back and we wouldโ€™ve loved to have him,โ€ Macdonald said, via Ari Horton of the teamโ€™s official website. โ€œBut so is Zach, and Kenny McIntosh has proved that he can run the ball effectively as well. We didnโ€™t feel like we needed to make any adjustments. Itโ€™s tough to tackle that guy in the open field. Heโ€™s got speed and power.โ€

  • Seahawks LB Uchenna Nwosu said heโ€™s missed time after suffering a torn left quad, but it does not require surgery, via Curtis Crabtree. 
  • Seahawks DT Leonard Williams was fined $16,883 for unnecessary roughness (facemask) in Week 13.
