The Seattle Seahawks face off against the St. Louis Rams in the first of two Monday Night Football matchups this season.
As with every game thus far, the Seahawks are favored to win. What is new is that this is the first road game that the Seahawks are projected to win by double digits in nearly a decade. Linemakers have the spread at -11 for the Hawks and the point total at 43.
As they mentioned in the linked post, it seems that people around the country love to bet on the Seahawks no matter what the spread is. I’m definitely in this boat too as the Seahawks take on a team that wasn’t very scary even before they lost the starting QB, Sam Bradford.
With Kellen Clemens taking over, the Seahawks defense will arguable face the least threatening opposing offense so far this season.
I expect Russell Wilson to have another solid game and the passing attack to finally put up some huge numbers in the dome. Marshawn Lynch will do what Marshawn Lynch does and you can bet on another GIF of BeastMode making an appearance on the site later tonight.
