Yeah but the hawks have a pretty good defense too. I see like a 10-3 type of game.

They are struggling as well. Maybe i was pushing a bit giving Bills 13. Might be closer to 6.

 

Point being Seattle wins this game easy never in question.

In Seattle, in prime time, it's hard for me to disagree unfortunately.

I could have seen a victory if Seattle hadn't dropped an NFC game to New Orleans a week ago. Now i just see them more ready to play, no let down. I see them absolutely stacking the box against us and daring us to pass. Tyrod is going to have to play well for us to even have a chance, and i doubt it.

 

On the plus side, their offense has been bad at pretty much everything in the past few weeks. Their line is awful, they don't have dynamic playmakers, and their backs are banged up and not that good. Wilson being hobbled also definitely hinders what they're trying to do.

 

Seattle wins a snoozefest 12-6.

I feel like the Seattle D is built more to stop the pass than the run so we should have a good day of running the ball down their throats. Just a thought

Go Bills!!!!!

Seattle's rush defense is ranked 7th.

Their pass defense is 24th.

 

I think we can run and pass on them. Honestly, I think the Bills upset them. I think they are overrated because they are playing in a weak division.

I think the Bills can stop the run. Seattle O line is a work in progress. Have to stop Wilson, who is nimble, and Graham. This will be a low scoring game. If the Bills score more than 17 points, I will be shocked. Seattle by 3

I can't believe someone has the bills at a 45% chance to win. IMHO, that's way too generous. Seattle at home on Monday night vs a banged up Bills team. I would give the Bills a 15% chance to win. I think I am going to bed early this Monday night.

 

Any bettors want some action my money line for the Bills is +170.

 

 

Seattle 23 Buffalo 10 (garbage time points)

So basically from what i understand, you guys are taking a "realistic" approach by handing the Win to Seattle correct?

 

So basically you expect the Bills to lose and if we win it would be considered unexpected right?

 

Ok got it.

 

Smh.

Well, that's what the majority of the human "experts" and all of the models seem to think anyway.
