Seattle vs. Pittsburgh

The Seattle Seahawks were out-gained by just shy of 200 yards last week at home vs. Cincinnati. It was a back-and-forth game that saw neither team lead by more than four points. Seattle somehow always seems to find a way to do just enough, and found a way to put one in the win column. When Pete Carroll has been an underdog in Seattle, his team is 38-23 ATS. The Seahawks are also 38-22 ATS under Carroll after a spread loss. Pittsburgh came away from their Monday nighter in New England with a lot more questions than answers. The Patriots zoomed out to a 20-0 halftime lead and coasted the rest of the way in a 33-3 beat down. The offense looked lost and the defense was not what we have come to expect in Pittsburgh. Ben Roethlisberger has lost Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown over the last two years and there just doesn't seem like there are any new game-changers around. I think Pittsburgh is going to struggle early and until they find some playmakers, as Big Ben is on an island right now. Play on Seattle.
