Broncos vs Seahawks Odds: Spread, Moneyline & Total
Seahawks vs Broncos Prediction
Based on Denver’s lucky record so far and Seattle’s misleading defensive record against the Niners, my Broncos vs Seahawks prediction is the Seahawks Moneyline (-150).Â
Denver owns a winning record despite a negative point differential. They’ve now won three games despite earning a halftime lead only once in five tries.
Guess who won’t blow a halftime advantage? Seattle’s defense. Since taking over as head coach, Mike Macdonald is 21-3 when he takes a halftime lead. All three losses came in 2024.
A historical trend suggests the Seahawks are in a good spot on short rest.
Teams playing a non-divisional game with an average victory margin between -2.2 and -4.3 are 12-44, assuming their win percentage falls between 55 and 61%. This week, that’s Denver.
More concerning is how the Broncos try to move the ball on Seattle’s defense. Against the 49ers, Seattle surrendered three scoring drives under 20 yards before halftime.
In fact, the 49ers failed to register a drive over 50 yards until the 4th quarter!
Denver, excluding Week 5, pales in comparison to San Francisco’s offense. The Niners entered Week 5 ranked first in offensive DVOA, whereas the Broncos ranked 15th, per FTN Fantasy.
On defense, Denver could miss Patrick Surtain for a second straight game. Without him, the unit lacks an answer for reigning OPOY Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
Entering Week 5, Seattle ranked fifth in pass offense DVOA. Denver, before playing a banged-up Chargers offense, ranked 12th in the corresponding defensive category.
This is not the Rams defense where Denver can produce a high-variance outcome and win on defense. Barring a bunch of fluky turnovers, I predict the Seahawks win on TNF.
