Mike Spector's pick: Broncos +2.5 (-102)
The Seahawks’ turnover issues are becoming crippling. Sam Darnold has thrown five interceptions since returning from injury in Week 3, and the team is tied for the most turnovers in the league over that span. Meanwhile, Denver’s defense forced three turnovers in the fourth quarter alone last week.

LJ Blut's pick: Jaxon Smith-Njigba to record a 30+ yard reception (+100)
The Seahawks wide receiver has the route-running ability, speed, and playmaking skills to create explosive plays against opposing secondaries. His role as a key target in Seattle's passing attack gives him multiple opportunities to break off a big gain.

Brenden Schaeffers's pick: Under 40.5 (-108)
Though the Seahawks have had a few shootouts lately, Denver’s defense and lack of a consistent offense have led to lower-scoring games. The Broncos rank 26th in the NFL in points per game (19.4).

LJ Blut's touchdown pick: Emmanuel Wilson anytime touchdown scorer (+105)
One of the biggest reasons to like Wilson is his ability to capitalize on increased playing time. Starting the last two games has given him a chance to establish himself in the offensive game plan, and his three touchdowns demonstrate that he can turn opportunities into points.
