SEAHAWKS VS SKINS DISCUSSION

Let's get some good dialog flowing on this game y'all. I have been intrigued by this game all weak with a HEAVY lean on Seattle.

I closely watched the Skins/Boys game last week and it was a very physical game. The Skins definately had to "get up" for the divisional game and are no doubt deflated after knowing they could have beaten their long hated rival. With this motivational angle, mixed with the well known cross-country mixed with Seattle's known home field craziness..I can't get off pulling the trigger with them at -3 +100 locally here. Below is more info for the case for the Seahawks...Again, I welcome Skins backers to explain to me why they are laying their money on them.

  • Favorite is 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 meetings.
  • Home team is 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
  • Seahawks are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
  • Seahawks are 3-0-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
  • Seahawks are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win.
  • Seahawks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.
  • Seahawks are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 vs. NFC

The biggest thing that sticks out to me is the offensive and defensive discrepancy of the field goal percentages...this is a HUGE advantage for Seattle....almost enough to take the -3 on just that basis IMO

Despite the number of carries being 14 the Seattle defense held Stephen Jackson to under 50 yards, a number that needs to be acknowledged. The week before that they held the ray rice to 5 attempts for 27 yards. With the Redskins bringing Torian/Helu who over the past 6 games are averaging 55 yards per game, the running game will not be a factor. Thus the Skins are going to Grossman to win this? Grossman faired descent against a Cowboy team who is ranked 14th in opp passing yards, but this week he will face an 8th ranked seattle passing defense. The seahawks held bradford to 180 yards passing and flaco to 255 yards passing. Neither of which should be considered elite qb's, but better than grossman. Seattle wins this because of there D.

Brandon Lang had a 100 dimer on Seattle. So I played the Skins +3 and + 2 1/2 second half. Two Winners.
