The Giants keep finding new ways to win games, and on Sunday in Jacksonville, they accomplished a new feat. Holding the Jaguars on the final play of the game, one yard short of the end zone, New York maintained its string of wins and its place as one of the NFC’s two wild cards.
Despite allowing more than 400 total yards for the second consecutive week, the redzone defense did its job by stopping the Jaguars three out of five times while the offense surpassed 20 points for the fourth week in a row and 200 rushing yards for the second time this season.
Betting on the Seattle Seahawks
- Season record: 4-3.
- BetMGM Spread: -3.0.
- Moneyline: (-150).
- Over/Under: 45
The Seahawks are another pleasant surprise of the season, as nobody expected much from them after Russell Wilson and Bobby Wagner left.
However, under Geno Smith, they are one of the best offenses in the league and leaders of a complicated NFC West. Although the QB has been caught 16 times, Seattle’s offensive line has done a job, and it shows: they are currently leading the league in average yards per carry with 5.5 and they are second in yards gained per play, behind the Bills, with 6.3.
However, the legion of boom is long gone, and the Seahawks are one of the most fragile teams defensively. The 2,794 total yards allowed are the second most in the circuit, while allowing opponents an average of 6.0 yards per play, the third-highest figure.
JefeBet Prediction
The Giants have been walking a tightrope in recent weeks and their visit to Seattle will be far from easy, as the Seahawks have won two of three games at home and the only game they lost was by four points to Atlanta. Moreover, the home team has the best yards per carry average, while New York has the second-highest yards per carry average in the league.
In terms of past results, while the visiting team has a 5-1 record against the spread in the last six meetings between the two, the Giants’ record against the spread in the last five meetings is 1-4, while the favorite has an 8-2 record against the line in the last eight meetings.
Prediction: Seahawks to win (NY 23 – SEA 26).
