The Seahawks are coming off of a thrilling 48-45 win against the Detroit Lions (+3.5)
last Sunday. On the day, Detroit’s offense averaged 5.8 yards a carry whilst the Seahawks defense only registered one sack and they allowed T.J. Hockenson to pick up 179 yards and two scores. Despite those shortcomings, Seattle was able to pull off the win thanks to a tremendous offensive play in which they racked up 555 yards of offense and did not punt.
Seattle was an underdog last week in victory, and this is something Pete Carroll’s team is going to have to replicate this week, as they are heavy underdogs against the New Orleans Saints (-5.
