Key to the game: Pass Defense
Seattle has proven, especially with Matt Hasselbeck under center, that they can move the ball through the air. The Cardinals are giving up 374 yards per game, most of that total coming via the pass. That must improve for them to get a victory over the Seahawks this afternoon.
Seahawks Breakdown:
Overall Record 2-3
Division Record 1-1 (3rd Place)
Home Record 2-1
ATS Record 2-3
Points per game (home) 29.3
Points per game allowed (home) 8.3
Key to the game: Pass Protection
The Seahawks have some significant injuries along the offensive line, so it will be key that their reserves step up and give the injured Matt Hasselbeck time to throw the ball. Hasselbeck returned to the lineup last week and led Seattle to a 41-0 win over Jacksonville; he was sacked just once in the victory. Another protection performance like that and Hasselbeck should have no trouble picking apart a pass defense that is giving up an average of 303 yards per game.
NFL Odds Betting Trend: The Over is 8-2 over the last five years when the Seahawks played as a home favorite coming off of a home win.
