Seattle (-7) over Dallas
Looking at this game you have two down teams. Still in the skill department Seattle has the edge. They have the potential to lay the wood on the cowboys tonight. Seattle is the least-penalized team in the NFL. Vinny is getting the start tonight and his lack of mobility helps the Seattle defense (Co Rhodes) blitz and get pressure on him. The secondary of Seattle is talented and should be up to stopping Keshawn (IMO the only Dallas WR threat). :scared 4 Seahawk linebackers and two defensive linemen are either out or limited. Whitten is a great weapon for Dallas but the speed at safety for Seattle is better.
On offense the Seahawks have a solid running attack (Cowboys give up 4.4 yards per carry). Hasselbeck would be a great QB if he had any faith in his receivers. WHY should he believe in this group, they drop about 50% of the balls thrown to them.
Still the Dallas secondary is swiss cheese (22 TD passes, only recorded 6 picks and opposing quarterbacks have a 97.8 rating) and Seattle can capitalize on that, if they can catch the ball. All in all I'm going with the better team at home (Dallas has a road record of 9-35 in its last 44 games away from Texas Stadium). In the last 4 games, the Cowboys have gone 1-3 and only scored 55 points (13.7 points per game). Seattle needs it offense to come through because if they score a few TD's Dallas doesn't have what it takes to stay with them. Sloppy game, the edge goes to Dallas best thing is if the Seahawks come out and get on top of them quick!
