Preview
The Kansas City Chiefs continue at home and will host the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at the GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. These teams haven't faced each since 2018-19 season in Seattle where the Seahawks took the win 38-31.
Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks have lost 4 of their last 5 games and get here with a 7-6 record ranking 2nd in the NFC West. They're coming from a tough loss against one of the worst teams in the league. Carolina took advantage of a sloppy showing by Seattle quarterback Geno Smith. Seattle struggled to deal with the Panthers defense's pressures, and Smith committed mistakes he had avoided for much of the season.
The Seahawks defense hasn't been as good as the offense and are allowing 25.9 points per game, 251 passing yards and 153.5 rushing yards, they have also allowed more than 200 yards rushing in losses to Las Vegas and last week to Carolina.
Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs have won 3 of their last 5 games and get here with a 5-2 record overall ranking 1st in the AFC West. Last week they beat the 49ers 44-23 on the road. Patrick Mahomes threw for 423 yards and three touchdowns. Mecole Hardman scored on two TD runs and an 8-yard catch, Justin Watson caught a 4-yard TD and JuJu Smith-Schuster finished it off with a 45 yard catch and run. Clyde Edwards-Helaire also scored on a 16-yard run as the Chiefs had their most productive offensive game of the season.
The defense has struggled allowing over 24 points per game, 297 passing yards and 97 rushing yards.
BETTING TRENDS
Kansas City are 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games against Seattle.
Kansas City are 3-15 SU in their last 18 games against Seattle.
Kansas City are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games on the road.
Kansas City are 1-10 SU in their last 11 games when playing on the road against Seattle.
Seattle are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Seattle's last 5 games.
The total has gone OVER in 6 of Seattle's last 9 games against Kansas City.
The total has gone OVER in 6 of Seattle's last 9 games at home.
Prediction
The Chiefs have defeated opponents by double digits in four of their last 7 contests and have lost only 1 game at home this season. The Seahawks have been up and down this season and they have lost 4 of their last 5 games. Their main problem is the defense who's allowing over 25 points per game. This is for me the lock of the day as I can't see the Seahawks able to keep up with the Chiefs on the road. Take the Chiefs.
PICK: Chiefs -10 (-110)
