Seahawks vs Titans Prediction
I’m picking Seattle to cover the spread at -2.5. I’m expecting the Seattle rushing attack to exploit the deficiencies in Tennessee’s rush defense, which had trouble defending the run in their last game. For this matchup, I like Seattle at -2.5.
For this matchup, I’m going to be hammering the under, as our model has Seattle and Tennessee combining for 41 points. Right now the over/under line is sitting at 42.5, so I’d recommend getting some action on the under.
