(0-1) are licking their wounds after a 30-13 hammering by the Los Angeles Rams (+6.5) on opening day. They’ll have to get off the canvas quickly because the next game is a road trip to the Motor City, where the Detroit Lions (-4.5) (1-0) are riding on a high after beating the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs (-12.5) at Arrowhead. It will be a massive, playoff-like atmosphere at Ford Field for a team that many believe can host a playoff game for the first time this century.
Last season the Seahawks won a 48-45 shootout over the Lions, but Detroit has revamped its defense, and Seattle will be without starting right tackle Abe Lucas due to a knee injury.
