Giants vs. Seahawks prediction: Odds, expert picks, QB matchup, injury updates, betting trends, and stats

Two teams coming off disappointing and at points ugly losses in prime time last week meet Sunday at Lumen Field in Seattle. The host Seahawks (3-1) watched Detroit march up and down the field on them on Monday Night in a 42-29 loss. The offense for Seattle did generate a handful of big plays but the defense got worked. The Seahawks’ opponent, the New York Giants lost a few days earlier for the 7^th consecutive time to the Dallas Cowboys 20-15. New York moved the ball effectively between the 20s last Thursday at Met Life Stadium but as has been the case for the majority of this young season, they could not find a way to punch it across the goal line.

Last season, these teams met on the east coast and Seattle rolled to a 24-3 victory.

Lets dive into the numbers and see if we can find a few sweats.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bets

NBC Sports Betting Analyst Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) is getting creative with this game.
“I think the Giants vs. the Seahawks is the perfect game for teaser legs. You can get the Seahawks basically on the moneyline or -.5 points or you can get the Giants +12.5. Either way, I don’t think the Giants win this game. Daniel Jones can’t hang with Geno Smith…I like the Seahawks to win but I like both legs for teasers.”
