The Seahawks earned a playoff berth on Sunday for winning the NFC West division. Pete Carroll thought it was "pretty cool" to be going to the playoffs with a losing record (7-9). "There is no apologies for making it into the playoffs. The easiest way to make it to the playoffs is to win your division, period, point-blank," safety Lawyer Milloy said. "We did that." The Seahawks became the first-sub. 500 division champs on Sunday night with a 16-6 win over the Rams to wrap up their first division title since 2007. "I guess we won for all the teams that have a losing record and think they can't be champions. It can get done, you can do it," Carroll said. "Somehow it happened."
