Seahawks vs Rams NFL Week 10 Spread & Betting Prediction

Written by on November 8, 2018

Jared Goff and the Los Angeles Rams will look to bounce back from their first loss of the season when they host Russell Wilson and a Seattle Seahawks team that is also looking to rebound from its own Week 9 defeat. If you’re ready to find out which one of these teams is offering the best betting value in this NFC West divisional showdown, then let’s get to my expert pick right now.

Why Consider Betting On Seattle?

Why should you consider betting on Seattle in this Week 10 divisional matchup? There are several good reasons actually. First, the Seahawks are getting a whopping 10 points and that figure does look a little bit inflated seeing as how six of the last 10 meetings between these two have been decided by six points or less with three of those being decided by a field goal or less. Next…Seattle is ranked sixth in points allowed (19.5 ppg), so they’ve clearly got a pretty solid defense.

Another great reason to back the Seahawks is because they’ve got a rushing attack that is ranked third in the league and can potentially chew up some time to keep the ball away from L.A.’s high-powered offense. Seattle also wants revenge for their narrow 33-31 home loss against the rams in Week 5. The Seahawks will have the added motivation of trying to bounce back from their 25-17 Week 9 home loss to the Chargers and hey, Seattle still has an MVP-caliber superstar in quarterback Russell Wilson.

Why Consider Betting On the LA Rams?

Are the Rams a safe betting pick for NFL Week 10?

Why should you consider betting on the Rams in Week 10? There are a bunch of great reasons starting with the fact that Los Angeles is ranked a stupendous third in scoring (33.2 ppg) and put approximately 10 points per game on the board more than Seattle. Then, there’s the fact that the Rams are also ranked a solid 10th in points allowed (22.2 ppg) and have a ton of talent on the defensive side of the ball, even if they haven’t quite been the elite unit they were expecting prior to the start of the season.

If you’re looking for another good reason to back Jared Goff and company, then you should know that the Rams are going to be highly motivated after suffering their first loss of the season after winning their first eight games of the 2018 season. Los Angeles was on the wrong end of a humbling 45-35 loss against Drew Brees and the incendiary New Orleans Saints last weekend.

Seahawks vs Rams Expert Analysis and Prediction

The Rams might be playing at home and they are clearly the ‘better’ team in this Week 10 divisional battle, but I’m going to advise you to back Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks to cover the spread as a double-digit road dog. Two of the last three and three of the last six meetings between these division rivals have been decided by six points or less and I’m expecting this one to as well.

I know Seattle has gone 1-5 ATS in their last six road dates against the Rams, but Russell Wilson and company are also 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss, 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games in Week 10 and a robust 12-4-2 ATS in their last 18 games following a straight up loss. With Jared Goff and the Rams going just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against their NFC counterparts and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall, I say back Seattle to cover while Los Angeles wins outright.
