can anyone make a case for Seattle?
He can...
SEATTLE + 3 ? over Washington - Matt Hasselbeck was back at QB for Seattle last week and rust from inactivity showed. His timing should be better this week against a Redskins team that is in a Divisional sandwich between Dallas and the Giants. Washington is also playing their first road game in nearly a month. Conditions are ideal for an upset with Seattle, when healthy, a talented team. And they have knocked Washington out of the Playoffs twice in the past three season on this field, including 35-14 this past January. The 'Skins have not been sharp in losing their last 2 games and can not benefit from the cross country trip. With improvement expected from the Seattle offense, the defense should perform better than it has most of the season as it's been under pressure to bail out an ineffective and injured offense. Seattle has historically enjoyed a strong home field but is just 1-4 this season. Building upom last week's improved effort in a loss to Arizona, Seattle pulls the upset over a team in the midst of a slump. Seattle wins 24-17. :shrug:
His 3 plays this week are...NE, DALLAS & SEATTLE.....
