I'm sorry I don't get that line of reasoning at all. Why is it with Rams fans that everything is a disaster if it happens to the Rams and they can't recover but the great Pete Carroll and his mighty Seahawks will prevail no matter if their entire O-line goes down. IT HAS BEEN WRITTEN!!!

It is true that Seattle has suffered heavy OL casualties before and did alright. This is not the first time. But they do alright because they have one of the rare qbs who can function effectively in that situation. Brady is another (see 2015). For completely different reasons, Wilson and Brady are still effective behind injury decimated OLs (as they have proven). But...as I said, that's not common.
Most teams, if you start eroding the OL through successive injuries, the injured OL takes the qb down with it.
So it's not just the Rams that would be set back by significant OL injuries. They have been, and we;ve seen it (a lot), but that's not because it's the Rams, it;s because that's what happens to most teams under those circumstances.
