New England Patriots vs. Seattle Seahawks Game Betting Analysis
It’s difficult to go against the Seahawks here, on a 10-game outright winning streak along with wins in a remarkable 14 straight games as the favorite. The moneyline is too expensive to take, however, so do we then test the spread? The data points to Seattle covering, as the Patriots are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six meetings with the Seahawks.
Also, New England has failed to cover the spread in four of five season opening games which does no favors in the loudest NFL stadium on ‘Super Bowl Celebration’ night. Finally, New England has failed to cover the spread in six straight games when facing the NFC West as an underdog. So there’s a lot of data suggesting Seattle wins and covers – but what about the total? The Over has hit in five of six meetings, the Under being the Super Bowl last season. Seattle also went 7-3 O/U at home last season, but New England going Under in seven of eight season opening games leads us back to the ATS as the better play.
