SourcePick Ideas
Seahawks -2.5
Seattle is the preferred side at -2.5 or better because its rushing advantage provides the clearest matchup edge.
Under 41.5 points
Under 41.5 is attractive if both teams emphasize the run and Seattle limits Washington’s explosive plays; avoid it below 40.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba anytime touchdown
Smith-Njigba is worth considering for an anytime touchdown if Lock starts again; his red-zone role should remain substantial.
Seattle moneyline in parlays
Seattle’s moneyline can be paired with another selection for bettors prioritizing win probability over spread value.
