Pick #1: Seahawks -3 over Texans (-110) Click Here to Bet
Our first best bet for this game will target the Seattle Seahawks to cover the spread. The Seahawks enter this game with a record of 4-2. They most recently beat the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6 by a score of 20-12. The Seahawks’ average margin of victory has been an impressive 14.0 points per game. The Texans, on the other hand, have only lost by an average margin of 4.3 points per game. That being said, their offense is still inconsistent, especially against teams with a winning record. For that reason, the Seahawks look to have good value to win by at least a field goal.
Pick #2: Over 41.5 (-105) Click Here to Bet
Our second best bet for this game focuses on backing the over. Seattle has been one of the best offenses this season, as they are averaging 27.7 points per game, which ranks fifth in the NFL. As for their defense, the Seahawks are allowing 19.5 points per game. Despite their losing record, Houston’s offense is starting to improve and is now averaging 21.6 points per game. Their defense has been the focal point, as they are allowing 12.2 points per game.
The Texans have only had one game this season that went over the total, but that was in their most recent game, where they scored 44 points and beat the Baltimore Ravens by a score of 44-10. As for Seattle, they have seen four of their six games go over the total this season. Given Houston’s resurgence in the scoring department and the fact that the Seahawks have consistently been able to find the end zone behind the Sam Darnold and Jaxson Smith-Njigba rapport, the Over looks to have good value in this one.
Pick #3: Jaxon Smith-Njigba Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+130) Click Here to Bet
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been fantastic for the Seahawks this season and looks to hold good value to score a touchdown at well into plus-money odds. Smith-Njigba is the leading receiver on the Seahawks with 696 yards through six games, which has translated into three receiving touchdowns. Further, Smith-Njigba has scored in both of the last two games. Houston’s defense has allowed three touchdowns to opposing receivers; therefore, backing JSN to put six points on the board appears the right wager to make.
