Seattle Seahawks make the long journey down south to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in week 6!
This week 6 game features the 4-1 Jacksonville Jaguars taking on the 3-2 Seattle Seahawks. This game promises to be an electric one, given that both teams are playing well to start the season.
Game Details:
| Recommended Bets | FanDuel | BetMGM |
|---|---|---|
| Sam Darnold 225+ Passing Yards | -162 | -175 |
| Jaxon Smith-Njigba 90+ Receiving Yards | +134 | +120 |
| Trevor Lawrence 200+ Passing Yards | -235 | -278 |
Sam Darnold is coming off a huge performance in week 5 with 341 passing yards. But, while that was a one-off, he has been consistently passing for over 200 yards with three games over 225. Additionally, the Jaguars’ strong run defense could mean that Seattle ends up throwing the ball more.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has embraced the role of WR1 head-on and is the go-to guy for Sam Darnold on the Seahawks offense. Smith-Njigba has over 100 receiving yards in 3 of his 5 games thus far, and another game over 90+. Moreover, the Jaguars’ pass defense is one of their weaknesses.
Trevor Lawrence probably played one of his best games last week against the Chiefs. Overall, he has three games passing over 200 yards, but the Seahawks are equally strong against the run. Look for Lawrence to air it out more, especially after Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter’s performances in week 5.
Sunday’s game between the Jaguars and the Seahawks doesn’t feature any real standout team. Both teams have been playing high-quality football. Both teams are close when it comes to scoring points, though the Seahawks hold the edge with around 29 points per game as opposed to the Jaguars’ 25.
Defensively, both teams are more or less evenly matched in terms of points allowed. The one aspect where Jacksonville holds the edge is the turnover battle, where they lead the league with a +8 differential, while the Seahawks are at -1.
That being said, Sam Darnold and the Seahawks’ offense have been the better side. If the game comes down to a quarterback duel, Darnold seems to have the better chance.
