Prediction
The Seahawks come into this game on a low note, having followed up an ugly tie against the Arizona Cardinals with a loss to the New Orleans Saints last week.
Seattle’s offense has been hurt by a lack of mobility of Russell Wilson, who has dealt with various injuries this season and has just 25 rushing yards on the year, and things don’t get much easier this week against a talented Bills defense.
That said, the Seahawks have a defense–third in Football Outsiders’ efficiency rankings–that always keeps them in games, and an offense that has played better at home this season. In three games at CenturyLink Field this year, the Seahawks are averaging 17.33 points per game, 2.06 points per drive and 103.67 rushing yards per game, compared to 14.25, 1.11 and 64.75, respectively, in four games on the road.
The ‘Hawks have turned all three of those home games into three wins, and they’ll use their extensive home-field advantage plus a long week to get back on track Monday night.
Prediction: Seahawks 24, Bills 14 (Seahawks against the spread, under 44)
