With two stellar wide receivers in DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, along with a good run game behind Rashad Penny, I believe this Seattle offense can compete.īe sure to check out our full Seattle Seahawks vs Denver Broncos predictions Andrew Ortenberg: Atlanta Falcons +5.5 over New Orleans Saints (-110) More impressively, he did it against a tough slate of defenses, having to face three top 8 DVOA pass defenses in the Rams, Steelers and Saints. In 2021, Geno ended up with the same PFF grade as Russell Wilson. He came into a tough situation last year halfway through a Thursday night game against the Rams and played well in his 3.5-game stint. I also believe the market is undervaluing Seattle QB, Geno Smith. Add in the fact that the Seattle coaching staff knows his every weakness and I think the Seahawks have a shot to keep this competitive. There is inevitably going to be some rust, and considering that Wilson didn’t take a single snap in the preseason, I’m not expecting the smoothest start to the game. It is challenging to assume that a team will be clicking on all cylinders immediately with a new QB coming into a new system after 10 years in Seattle with a brand-new head coach, OC and offensive weapons. I understand this is a revenge spot for Russell Wilson as he now leads the Broncos, but I think this number has gotten far ahead of itself. Timing is likely to be an issue early on as he hasn’t spent much time with this receiving corps, so we could see them stall out when the Giants find ways to stuff the run.Įxpect a hard-fought battle on both sides of the ball from each team, but don’t expect to see either team put up a world of points.īe sure to check out our full New York Giants vs Tennessee Titans predictionsĬlevta: Seattle Seahawks +6.5 over Denver Broncos (-110) Derrick Henry will receive his usual workload as the Titans look to move downfield, but as the Giants work to stuff the run, the onus will be on Tannehill to keep the momentum alive with the passing attack. Meanwhile, the Titans will continue to work a slower, much more methodical game plan. The Giants offense will do its best to speed up the pace of play, but given the potential struggles of the offensive line and the typical growing pains you see in a team learning a new system, we could see a lot of early three-and-outs. With a Giants team in transition and a Titans team that loves to lean on the run and chew up the clock on every down, a game total of 43.5 screams to take the under. If you can’t find 51 in the market, another alternative is to bet under 24.5 in the 1st half or under 10 in the 1st quarter.īe sure to check out our full Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Dallas Cowboys predictions Howard Bender: Giants vs Titans under 43.5 (-105) Tom Brady’s absence from training camp will also likely play an impact, and I can see this game starting slow. I don’t see either offensive line creating a ton of movement, especially Tampa, who is very banged up at center and right tackle. This is the most landed on total in the NFL over the last five seasons so I would use that as a dividing line for where to buy in, as I would not go under 50.5 or 50.
