Week 4 SNF: Colts vs. Seahawks NFL Betting Odds & Game Info

Written by on September 29, 2017

This is a game that you would ordinarily expect the Seattle Seahawks to win easily, but there are now some real doubts about their ability to get the job done. The NFL betting odds favors them as a 13-point home favorite for this one, with the point total set at 41 ½. The Seattle Seahawks have developed a reputation as a slow starter in the NFL, and while they always find a way to right the ship, you need to wonder if that style of play is going to catch up with them. They have lost 2 of their opening 3 games, and have looked pretty bad doing so. This weekend they will play in prime time on Sunday night, welcoming in an Indianapolis Colts team that looks lot without Andrew Luck under center.

Why consider the Colts NFL Betting Odds?

There was always the feeling that the 2017 season might prove to be a long one for the Indianapolis Colts. This is a team that has taken a nosedive over the past couple of seasons, and who started this one with their best player, QB Andrew Luck, out indefinitely with a shoulder injury. The Colts started the year with Scott Tolzien under center, but after a pair of lackluster performances that resulted in just 22 points scored, they made the switch to Jacoby Brissett. The change worked out, as the Colts got their first win of the season in Week 3, a nervy 31-28 victory over the Cleveland Browns. This match-up figures to be a good deal tougher, though, as Seattle is always a tough place to play, no matter how the home team is doing on the season. The Colts have had some success ATS on the road, going 4-2 in their last 6 games. They are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 visits to Seattle, and the OVER has come up in 8 of their last 9 road games overall.

Why consider the Seahawks NFL Betting Odds?

What is going on with the Seattle Seahawks? This is a question that we always seem to end up asking at the start of every season, but this year seems a little different than most. The Seahawks are averaging just 16 PPG through the first 3 weeks, and their lone win was a 12-9 victory over the San Francisco 49ers, arguably one of the worst teams in the NFL. The offense did show a little bit of life in the second half last week in a game that they ended up losing 33-27 to Tennessee, but a lot of those points came in garbage time. If this offense is going to get back on track, the Colts may well be the opponent that allows it to happen. The Seahawks are huge NFL Betting Odds favorites vs. Colts in Week 4. These two teams don’t meet very often, and while the Colts have won the last 2 times they hooked up, those wins came at a time when there were very good QB’s at the helm. Seattle is still 9-1 SU in their last 10 home games, but have yet to cover this season, and are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games.

Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction

I think the point spread for this one is a little generous to Seattle, but I also believe that the point total is one that can be topped. I’m taking Seattle to win in the NFL betting odds, with the Colts to cover, and I’m also going with the OVER. Score: Indianapolis Colts 14 – Seattle Seahawks 33
