Seahawks vs. Falcons Predictions For NFL Week 7, Sunday 10/20

When it comes to the Seahawks and Falcons, these are two teams that have each had moments looking extremely strong and rather questionable. Despite that, they both have an opportunity to sit atop their respective divisions following this game.

With Atlanta at home, on a three-game winning streak and Seattle on a three-game losing skid, it would be rather easy to simply focus our Seahawks vs. Falcons predictions on a home team victory. In fact, the Seahawks vs. Falcons odds are almost begging fans to do so; they’re favored by just under the key number of three.

While they very well may get the win, we found a more specific market that we’re going to isolate for the best bet from our Seahawks vs. Falcons picks.
 

 

 

Seattle Seahawks: They Are Who We Thought They Were

For those who have been sticking with us this season, you should be in a good spot when it comes to the Seahawks. After their 3-0 start and fans were sucked in, we saw it more as fool’s gold. 

They narrowly beat a Denver Broncos team at home with a rookie QB making his NFL debut, a New England Patriots team that is now 1-5 and a Miami Dolphins team after QB Tua Tagovailoa went down. So, not only were we not surprised by their three-game losing streak, but one of those even came at home to the New York Giants.

At the end of the day, they’re still in the mix with a mediocre NFC West to this point, but we don’t see them as true contenders right now.
 

 

 

Atlanta Falcons: Flying Above The Rest

In recent seasons, the NFC West was among the toughest divisions while the NFC South has been arguably the worst. Well, now the latter has two teams at 4-2 with the Falcons flying above the Tampa Bay Buccaneers courtesy of their head-to-head overtime win on Thursday Night Football.

In fact, Atlanta’s three-game winning streak is exceptionally great for them as all three victories came against divisional opponents. Admittedly, we were concerned with QB Kirk Cousins Achilles injury from last season given how he looked in Week 1, but he has since proven those concerns and other doubters wrong to this point.

Seahawks vs. Falcons Predictions: First Half Over 26 Points (-110 at Caesars Sportsbook)

We mentioned that we were going to isolate a specific portion of this matchup, and that would be the first half. The total for this game may end up closing as the highest of the entire Week 7 slate, and we’re expecting fireworks early.

The high total overall already supports this, but it’s also about how these teams have trended thus far. This is especially true for Atlanta, so let’s start with their side of the matchup. Firstly, they score over 14 points per game in the first half, which has them inside the top 10 in that regard.

This lines up well against a Seattle defense that allows nearly 13 points per game in the first two quarters. Similarly, the Falcons have been even worse, allowing 14 points per game in the first half. So, while the Seahawks may not be as strong offensively early on, Atlanta’s defense certainly tends to allow teams to improve that.

We also expect most of the high total overall to be done early because the Falcons really buckle down in the second half. In the final two quarters, they allow just 8.5 points per game, which is again inside the top 10.

Therefore, we’d rather not sweat out the whole game when we can back these trends and make the best bet from our Seahawks vs. Falcons picks on over 26 first half points (-110 at Caesars Sportsbook) for a potential early payout!
