The Seattle Seahawks pitched a shutout at Lumen Field against the Minnesota Vikings in a 26-0 victory to get their record to 9-3. Their offense wasn’t great for most of the game, but the defense was DOMINANT. Next up is a trip south to face the 4-8 Atlanta Falcons.
It’s another early kickoff on the east coast for Seattle, but that doesn’t seem to impact the betting lines as the Seahawks are a (-8.5) favorite according to FanDuel Sportsbook. That’s a pretty hefty line for Seattle, but they’ve been lights-out this season on the road for the most part. The over/under sits at 44.5 points.

They still have plenty of weapons including Bijan Robinson who had 193 total yards and a TD in Atlanta’s 27-24 loss to the New York Jets in Week 13, a game in which the Falcons were ahead in the fourth quarter.
Seattle will look to keep control of their own NFC West destiny following the surprising Carolina Panthers win over the Los Angeles Rams. It will be an early kickoff next week in Atlanta, but a Seahawks win would be a great way to start the day!
