Seahawks Descend into Pro Football Betting Trouble at Rams

Seattle Seahawks vs. Los Angeles Rams

While the Rams suffered their first loss of the season, they are still considered a top tier favorite to make the Super Bowl.  At the beginning of the Rams success is young quarterbacking phenom Jared Goff.  In turn running back Todd Gurley is among the most productive in football.  Extending LA’s success is an offense that scores as much as anyone.  Defensively the Rams are a top ten unit.  Meanwhile Seattle took a Pro Football betting step back last week after wining two in a row. Counter to LA the Seahawks offense is among the worst in the game.

Seattle Seahawks

Seattle has a Pro Football betting record of 4-4 straight up and 4-3-1 against the board with six unders.  Last week the Seahawks lost at home to the Chargers 25-17.  It was the third straight game that Seattle went under the total.  Overall the Seahawks rank 26th for total offense but sixth for scoring defense.  Naturally quarterback Russell Wilson is the key catalyst for what offensive production Seattle does have.  Wilson has a 108.6 rating with 18 touchdowns and five interceptions.  Chris Carson and Mike Davis have helped with over 4.3 yards per rush.

Los Angeles Rams

Los Angeles has a sportsbook online record of 8-1 straight up but 4-5 vs. the line with five unders.  Last Sunday the Rams lost a shootout at New Orleans 45-38.  Hence it was the fifth loss against the spread in their last six games overall.  More emphatically LA ranks number one in the NFL for total offense.  In addition, the defense ranks 10th for points allowed.  Goff has a 112.9 rating with 20 touchdowns and six interceptions.

Stats to Consider

Seattle has suffered a deep drop in betting value as a road dog.  First, the Seahawks have covered just three out of their last nine games getting points away from home.  Secondly, they have gone under the total in three of their last five as road pups.  Balanced against that is the Rams good betting value as a home favorite.  In fact, LA has lost just two of their last seven games with the line laying points at Memorial Coliseum.  Just two of their last seven as home favorites have gone over the total.

Team vs. Team

Seattle has covered the spread in three of their last four games with the Rams.  And four of the last six in this series have gone under the total.  However, Seattle has gushed red ink on the road in this matchup.  To show the Rams have paid in five of their last six home games with the Seahawks.  Six of the last eight Seattle games at the Rams went under the total.

Matchup to Watch

Granted the Seahawks have a strong defense.  However, the Rams have the far superior firepower in this Pro Football betting matchup.  As mentioned earlier most key trends are also in LA’s favor.
