🏈 Sunday Night Football preview & score prediction
Jayden Daniels is expected to play on Sunday after missing last week with a hamstring injury. The Commanders have managed 18-plus points in all five games in which he’s appeared, topping 20 in four of those contests.
The Seahawks have held six of seven opponents to 20 or fewer points, but five of those teams rank in the bottom 14 in scoring offense. Seattle surrendered 38 points when it faced the Buccaneers.
Struggling pass defenses will get torched
The Seahawks field the league's 10th-worst pass defense, while the Commanders put out the seventh-worst. Sam Darnold and his seventh-ranked passing attack shouldn't struggle to move the ball with ease against the Commanders.
And while the Commanders rank ninth-worst in passing yards, a lot of that is tied to Daniels’ injuries. Daniels has thrown for at least 200 yards in every game he’s completed, tallying eight touchdowns and just one interception.
FanDuel’s price of -112 for Over 47.5 implies a 52.83% chance that the Over hits. A $10 bet would profit $8.93. And with Daniels back, it’s worth taking a shot on the Commanders’ moneyline of +140.
Score prediction: Commanders 27, Seahawks 24
