Seahawks vs Lions Betting Preview
Good Morning,
With baseball mostly off today (aside from a double header in Atlanta) we are going to preview both Monday night football games this morning.
This one is on the house, but if you like it please consider trying out our premium service where we give these bets out for each primetime game!
Lions vs Seahawks
1. Lions -3.5
Rationale: Detroit has significant home-field advantage with Jared Goff’s 26-9 ATS record indoors over the last three seasons, and they are 6-2 ATS as favorites in their last 8 games. Seattle’s defense has impressive numbers but has faced weak quarterbacks (Bo Nix, Jacoby Brissett, Skylar Thompson). With injuries along Seattle’s defensive line, Detroit’s strong offensive front and balanced attack (both run and pass) should be too much for the Seahawks to handle.
Confidence Level: High
2. Tyler Lockett Over 43.5 Receiving Yards
Rationale: Lockett has been a consistent threat against Detroit, having gone over this mark in both of his last two games against the Lions. The Lions’ defense, while improved, still has vulnerabilities in the secondary (ranked 20th in Dropback EPA per play allowed). With DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba demanding coverage, Lockett is likely to get open for some big gains, especially in a game that could turn into a high-scoring affair.
Confidence Level: Medium to High
3. Jahmyr Gibbs Anytime TD (+175)
Rationale: With David Montgomery expected to handle the power running, Gibbs will likely be used in more creative ways, including the passing game. Seattle’s defense has been solid, but with injuries up front, they might struggle to contain both Detroit’s powerful offensive line and Gibbs’ dynamic playmaking ability. Gibbs has already contributed in both rushing and receiving yards and should get opportunities near the goal line.
Confidence Level: Medium
4. Geno Smith Over 1.5 Passing TDs
Rationale: Geno Smith has been efficient, completing nearly 75% of his passes this season. He’s surrounded by elite receivers (Metcalf, Lockett, Smith-Njigba), and while Detroit’s defense has shown improvements, Smith's passing weapons give him a strong chance of hitting at least two touchdowns. This could be particularly relevant if Detroit jumps out to a lead, forcing Seattle to rely on the passing game.
Confidence Level: Medium
5. Total Points Over 46
Rationale: While both defenses have performed well statistically, these teams have a history of high-scoring games (averaging over 80 points in their last three meetings). With the offensive firepower on both sides and Seattle’s potential for a backdoor cover, this game could easily turn into a shootout. Detroit is "due" for an over as all their games this season have hit the under, and both offenses are capable of explosive plays.
