Seattle (-1.5) vs MINNESOTA

Lean – Under 55.5

Russell Wilson has a league-leading 4 touchdowns on passes with at least 20 air yards this season. Tyler Lockett is averaging 4.48 yards per route run and should find space behind CB Mackensie Alexander, who is surrendering a reception every 6.3 cover snaps, ranks which ranks 69th out of 72 qualifying cornerbacks. However, Wilson might not have much time in the pocket as RT Brandon Shell is banged-up with an ankle injury and will struggle to contain edge defender Danielle Hunter (6th in pass rushing efficiency).

The Vikings have the best rush defense by our metrics, and I don’t think Chris Carson will be effective on the ground. That’s not necessarily bad, as it may force Seattle to throw more.

These teams met last October and the game came down to a 4th & Goal DK Metcalf touchdown with 15 seconds remaining. I expect a similar coin flip finish this Sunday.

Our model favors the Seahawks by 0.6 with a predicted total of 52.4 points.
