I see a ton of Seattle love out there, and I get it they are a good team, I had them in 4 different bets on Sunday. But remember… New England knows Sam Darnold very well from his days with the NYJ. Remember 2019 his infamous "I see ghosts" game on MNF against the patriots? 24-0 at halftime… 34-0 at conclusion. Sam went 10-33 for 86 yards and 4 interceptions. Now granted BB was the head coach for that game, but the films are in the building, and Mike Vrabal is a defensive coach. New England dominated SD so dramatically, the Jets sent him packing. He's played considerably better for Minnesota and Seattle, but that Seattle team is limited with only Walker to carry the rock and JSN catching the ball. It is a good as he is (1800 yards), nobody else on the team even has 600. I'm not saying Seattle can't win, of course they can… But 5.5 points is ridiculous. Additionally, there is some talk that Drake Maye banged up his throwing shoulder on 1 of the runs on Sunday, so there is that. I'm going to wait a while before locking anything in, 2 weeks is a long time.

it's always scary when one side appears so strong as Seattle was awesome vs SF and really solid against a very good Rams team (that I wanted to win, but mistakes happen)..

While anything's possible in a 1gm scenario, it's hard to imagine Seattle struggling to move the ball vs the Patriots. I love Vrabel, Maye was my fantasy QB most of the year and is very capable, we'll see about his shoulder next week.

But I don't think you can look at Darnold as the same QB he was for the Jets, not in any way.
Maye is quite capable, but NE WRs certainly not the same level as the Rams.
Njigba seems to be the WR nobody can cover, all season.
Kubiak (Sea OC) is a man in demand to be a HC next year, he's dialed up a game plan for Seattle all year and my guess is both teams will have some success.

gun to my head I'd prob do Pats +6 BUT haven't done anything more than a parlay Sea ml/Ov 46

gl whatever you play Shamrock!
