SEATTLE SEAHAWKS -3-125 Sep 13 01:00 PM (Week 1)


This is 100% a play against a ram’s team that cannot produce any real offence. The -3 is just hype around the ram’s defense being better, and the fact that this game is in Missouri. This skill difference and the coaching leveling difference in this game is monumental. I would not have made this bet if Seattle Seahawks had won the super bowl. I was blown away with the addition of TE Jimmy Graham in the offseason and I’m very optimistic about the play of Tyler Lockett. My concerns about Seattle is the offensive line and I’ll watch to see if there is any major injuries in the next few weeks that would cause me to buy back most of my bet over the next 4 weeks .

My friend, your money/take is welcome here at the RX. I take a different view. I like St. Louis in this spot because of DEFENSE. Both are strong on the defensive side of the ball. At home, got to believe SL plays better in this situation.

Check out road teams who won 13 games last year versus a team that didn't win as many games. Every angle in the book favors St. Louis.

Respect your play....St. Louis is one of may top 5 plays.

St. Louis Rams special teams player and backup linebacker Daren Bates will be out about a month with a MCL knee sprain sustained in the preseason opener.

Love the sea hags here too, thought it would be about 4.5.
I have little faith in Foles, Seattle will play pissed b/c they should be going for a
Three-peat

This will be a very hyped up game for both sides, more do for Seattle after that debacle in the bowl......

Seattle definitely has the coaching advantage, but week 1 at home vs a super bowl team is huge for the Rams.

The line is Seattle -3.5 at most books......& it will be -4 to -4.5 by game time

Matthews (shoulder) could return to the field within 10 days according to coach Pete Carroll, the Bellingham Herald reports. The injury initially appeared to possibly be serious, but the wide receiver will likely return to action in a little over a week.

It was -4.5 but the line has moved the last few weeks

Seattle Seahawks rookie Frank Clark is a new weapon at linebacker, he was a three-year letterman ... appeared in 46 games and selected second-team All-Big Ten, I really like how the pieces are fallling into place for this Seahawks team.

Kam Chancellor is still holding out for a new deal from the front office in Seattle, but he could be back on the field as early as Monday ? Chancellor is currently scheduled to make $4.55 million during the 2015 NFL season, and a total of $16.88 million over the next three seasons. This is part of a four-year, $28 million contract that he signed ahead of the 2013 NFL season. Now, Chancellor wants more money, and his agent has been very blunt in speaking about it.

The St. Louis Rams played their second of four preseason games on Sunday night, and it wasn’t pretty by any stretch of the imagination. While we’re not supposed to get worked up about preseason games, Sunday’s performance provided cause for concern. While the Rams finally put their first touchdown of the preseason on the board in the late third quarter, the starting offense was held scoreless for the second straight game, and really did not show many signs of life throughout their action in the first quarter and most of the second.

I still like this game at the -3 number. If the rams fall behind, that plays into Seahawks wheelhouse, but they need to get Kam Chancellor to end his holdout

The Cowboys went 0-4 & 0-5 in preseason back in the early 90's when they won back to back super bowls

I think preseason means more to some teams than others......

well PJ

I might be simplifying this too much but St. Louis has a subpar and relatively inexperienced offense, with a truly subpar running game Vs at top 10 def. I know there was some hype in the off season and one sports writer from Sports Illustrated who predicted St. Louis would have the best defense in football, but I have not seen it.


It’s hard to judge Hawks offence this far, but it is on a different level then St. Louis... Russell Wilson finished 9 of 15 for 78 yards in preseason game 2, most of that coming on three completions to Jimmy Graham. Having these two stars on the same page will be devastating in the red zone. Marshawn Lynch has not even touched the field yet. Last week 2 rookies QBs Alex Tanney and Marcus Mariota sliced up St. Louis pass defense.

Rams at home, Division game, Seattle traveling East for a noon game. While none of those things mean Rams win, they do mean something as far as betting goes.

Seattle won't cover this game.......the best they will do is a 3 point win, they won't cover!

Rams at home… advantage rams
Division game… advantage same for both teams
Seattle traveling East for a noon game… it’s the first game of the season, hawks are a veteran super bowl, travels will not affect, the will have adequate time to prepare and acclimate , they may even get there 2 days early.
