Seattle Seahawks - NFL Betting Analysis

Heading into week 3, the Seattle Seahawks are looking to bounce back from a loss to the Falcons by a score of 27-23, giving them a loss against a NFC opponent. Heading into the game, the Seahawks were expected to win as -1.0 point favorites. This outcome resulted in both a straight up and ATS loss. In the game, Seattle trailed the Falcons by a score of 27-23 heading into the 4th quarter. Through 3 games, the Seahawks have an ATS record of 1-2. So far, they have an over-under record of 1-2. This week's betting total of 50.0 is higher than the line in their previous games.

Heading into this week's matchup, the Seahawks offense is averaging 15.67 points per game, placing them 28th in the NFL. Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Lions defense giving up 31 points per game. Although the Seahawks come into the game ranked just 21st in pass yards per game, they will benefit from facing a Detroit secondary that is vulnerable through the air. We expect Seattle to have an above average performance in the passing attack. Although the Seahawks have a good matchup in the run game, our projections show that they will not be able to take advantage. So far, Seattle is averaging 74.67 yards per game on the ground.

 

Detroit Lions - NFL Betting Analysis

This week, the Lions will look to get back on track, as they lost to the Minnesota Vikings in a NFC North matchup by a score 28-24. Detroit went into the game as the 6.5 point underdogs on the spread. In terms of the over-under, the teams combined for 52 points, which surpassed the betting line of 51. In the losing effort, the Lions blew a 10 point lead heading into the 4th quarter, as Minnesota outscored them by 14 in the final period. Through 3 games, the Seahawks have an ATS record of 1-2. So far, they have an over-under record of 1-2. This week's betting total of 50.0 is higher than the line in their previous games.

As the Lions prepare to take on Seattle, they have played well on offense, ranking 2nd in points per game at 31.67. Although the Lions come into the game ranked just 16th in pass yards per game, they will benefit from facing a Seattle secondary that is vulnerable through the air. We expect Detroit to have an above average performance in the passing attack. On the ground, the Lions come into the game averaging 170.33 yards per game placing them 3rd in the league. However, our projections show they could be in line for let down game in this week's matchup vs Seattle.

 

Today's NFL Betting Pick - Seahawks vs. Lions

Looking back at the recent matchups between Seattle and Detroit, the Lions have taken 4 of the last 5 contests. The two teams have combined to average 45.8 points per game in their last 5 meetings. In last year's only game between the teams, the over-under line was set at 41.5 and Seattle as the -9.0 point favorites. The Seahawks went on to cover the spread and pick up the 51-29 win.

The Seattle Seahawks have performed well vs the spread in recent games, going 3-2. The Seahawks offense has averaged 28.4 points per game over the 5 most recent meetings with Detroit, compared to the Lions at 17.4.

Over their last 3 regular season games, the Seahawks have gone 1-2 straight up. In these games they have gone just 1-2 vs the spread, while posting an over-under mark of 1-2.

In their last 3 games away from home, the Seahawks have a straight up record of 1-2 while going 1-2 vs the spread. The team averaged 18.33 points per game in this stretch.

Across their previous 3 regular season games, the Lions have a straight up record of just 1-2. In addition, the team has not done well vs the spread, going 3-0. Their over-under record in these games was 3-0.

Detroit has played well in their previous 3 home games, going 2-1 straight up. In this stretch, they averaged 36.0 points per game while allowing 31.67. The team also performed well vs the spread at 3-0.

Recommended ATS Betting Pick: Lions -4.5
