Hawks a bit banged up and known to be below avg on the road playing a Vikings team who is leading their division and 4-1 at home yet still favoured. A Vikings loss would be great for parity as I believe GB wins Thursday and that would have them neck and neck while also keeping Seattle in contention for the wild card. Hawks should be able to make enough plays on D to grind out a win and Wilson finally had an offensive outburst which hopefully can carry over. Hawks win this one 27-17.

Jimmy Graham going down seemed to spark the offence. Wilson was always having to look for Graham but also had zero protection. Now the protection is getting better & he can go back to old reliables like baldwin kearse and wilson.

Seattle has pretty good ATS record only one loss in December the last couple of seasons
Spring line was -4.5 Seattle but I agree Seattle being favoured should balance the books.

I think they can bottle up AP, you can't fault Minny for their schedule but they have played 3 PO teams from last year and are 1-2 SU the one win was against DET.

Go Hawks!

Rawls probably has a big day. Lacy got 100yds on them 2 weeks ago. SEA takes AP out of game and they get it done.

People continue to doubt Minny. Me as well. Leaning seacocks here especially with that line.

The Seahawks pass defense is legit bad right now. I think OVER is the play. I know Minn has a good defense, but SEA gives up tons of points -- even to shitty offenses like the Rams.

Open at pinnacle and bookmaker as -1 seattle

Regardless, the line is correct. Records have nothing to do with lines or team power ratings. My power ratings show Seattle favored by 0.5 so as far as I'm concerned its spot on.

You forgot to mention, the Vikes are banged up defensively. Following starters in the following positions are all injured, NT, SS, FS and NT.
Hawks play up to -3 is a good pick. BOL

Vikes 8-2 last 10 with 3 point loss at Denver early in the season and a bad loss at home to GB which the refs did everything possible to give to the Packers (halftime: 100 penalty yards on Minny, 0 on GB). Will have to watch the injury report. If Vikes missing a lot of starters on defense that will be tough for them. Vikes rely on good running and solid defense.

I do like the over as was mentioned earlier. Seattle defense isnt what it used to be

Sea. may win, but on a neutral field I would set the line at Sea. -3 to start, and let bettors bet.
So, +3 points to Minny for home field advantage, and we have a Pick 'em game....
Thus, No real crazy strange shit with this line imho. Not a Vegas gift by just reading the line...
Should be a good game to watch.
Enjoy it and GL

So considering a nice win over Pitt., the line should be Sea. -1. And it has moved to -1.5 as I see it now at Greeky.

It's pretty sad when the local television switches to the SF/Chi game. The announcer said "We will be going to the San Francisco Vs. Chicago game due to it being more competitive." Hilarious
