    Seahawks are a few NFL teams that are strong at home field advantage.

    since it is a MNF game the atmosphere in that stadium will be unreal

    packers will have many false start penalties too

    Green Bay is not as good on defense as they looked against Chicago. Seattle might put up 30 on Green Bay.

    Line should be -6, getting extra points with the Packers.

    Seahawks flattened the Cowboys who beat the defending champs, all with a rookie QB that's exciting to watch. The lookahead line was GB -5, and Seattle is looking stronger than expected, overall. The line is not so mysterious, however I'll be very surprised if the Seahawks can replicate today's strong performance two weeks in a row. I already played the Packers at the deflated price.

    Seahawks are usually good for 2 solid upsets at home. I like them more at home vs Patriots/49ers than Green Bay.

    Some pretty enticing lines for next week, but IMO GB isn't one of them. Going against the Hawks at home is a bad idea.

    What have the Seahawks done to elevate them to the level that they should be receiving ~2 extra points of respect in the spread against a top 5 team? Dallas is not an elite team, and either way, one win is not definitive.

    I can't remember the last time SEA beat GB. GB has done well against them.

    I am taking GB in this situation at (-3) or (-3.5) all day. I like the Seahawks corners who are long and athletic but still too many weapons for the Packers.

    The OVER might be a good play in this game too.

    I bought the .5 all ready got it at -3 this is only going up by the end of the week. the line will be 5 or even 6 packers. I suggest put your money down now. They overrating the seahawks after the upset the over rated cowboys. Packers def just blasted the bears. They have the mvp the super bowl offence put your money on the best team thank you

    packers-3.5 @-105 currently on 5dimes. I think the line falls to -3. Rodgers will be on ground often against this Seahawks D

    Give me Seattle's defense, Century Link Field and getting points at home and I think you have another money line winner like today.

    Local here. Having watched every minute of every seahawk game for years, you should consider home/away as two different teams. Home seahawks are top 10 team. Away seahawks are bottom 10 team.

    Seattle fans are desperate homers and cheer for all things local. We even turn out for a bad MLS team and go crazy for 90 minutes in the rain.
