Early picks & predictions for Patriots vs Seahawks
Here are our early picks for the Super Bowl matchup between the Patriots and the Seahawks.
Based on the opening odds for the spread, we are leaning towards the Seahawks to win outright and cover the 4.5-point spread over the Patriots. Throughout the season, both teams have done well on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.
Offensively, the Patriots and the Seahawks finished second and third, respectively in scoring during the regular season. While New England put up 28.8 points per game, Seattle was right behind with 28.4. During the postseason, however, the Seahawks have scored an average of 36 points in their 2 games, whereas the Patriots have scored just 18. That being said, New England’s three games have come in tougher playing conditions.
Defensively, the Seahawks had the number one scoring defense in the regular season, allowing just 17.2 points a game, whereas the Patriots were the fourth-best scoring defense, giving up 18.8 points a game in the regular season. Once again, those numbers are skewed in the postseason due to the Patriots’ games coming in cold weather climates with frigid conditions. Seattle has allowed just 16.5 points per game in the postseason, whereas New England has allowed a remarkably low 8.7 points.
That being said, we feel that Seattle has the upper hand in the matchup and should be able to cover the 4.5-point spread in the Super Bowl.
Understanding how to bet on NFL games is crucial for maximizing the value of our expert picks and making informed wagers each week.
For the total points, the Over/Under is set at 45.5. As per the opening odds, we are leaning towards the Over at this point. Even though both teams possess a top-five defense in the league this season, these two teams also boast a top-three offense, which indicates that this game could be a higher scoring game than the projected 45.5 points.
Early player prop: Sam Darnold Under 227.5 Passing Yards (-114)
For the early player prop, we are leaning towards Sam Darnold throwing for Under 227. Passing yards in the Super Bowl. Overall, the Patriots have a strong defensive unit, with their secondary touted to be one of the better ones in the league.
The Seahawks have a well-balanced offense that relies on both the passing and running game. Moreover, Darnold has generally thrown for fewer yards against teams with elite defense this season, which seems to indicate that would be the case against New England in the Super Bowl.
