Seattle Seahawks vs. Detroit Lions Prediction

Detroit will attempt to hand the Seahawks their first loss of the season.

Seattle will look to pick up their biggest win of the season in a hostile environment.

Entering the year, Seattle was not expected to be a playoff team.

The Seahawks are yet to play a team over .500 so tonight will be a good measuring stick of how good this team really is.

Detroit will attempt to move to 3-1 on the season.

The Lions became America's team last year on their way to the postseason for the first time in three decades.

After a breakout year in 2023, the Lions are on the radar of every team around football.

Detroit entered the season as the betting favorite in the NFC North, and with a win tonight, they would trail the first-place Minnesota Vikings by one game in the division.

Seattle Seahawks vs. Detroit Lions Player Prop Picks

Pick: Sam Laporta First TD +1200 Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

LaPorta is off to a sluggish start this season but it is not for a lack of volume.

The former Iowa standout has played in 78 percent of offensive snaps this season, but his percentage is skewed slightly because he was injured in the last game.

The tight end is one of Goff's favorite and most trusted targets in the red zone.

Pick: Jackson Smith-Njigba First TD +1600 Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

The second-year wideout has seen an expanded role early in the season.

JSN holds incredible value tonight in a game I see as a shootout filled with big plays.

Smith-Njigba has played 83 percent of offensive snaps, ranking second on the team behind DK Metcalf (86%).
