Chris’ Pick

I’m backing the Seahawks here. I just still have a hard time being on the Commanders side here, as Washington’s had some inconsistent performances lately, but they’re still boasting one of the higher points allowed per game totals in the league this season. The Seahawks are always going to be a tough out, especially at home where the 12th man really comes into play and I just don’t think the Commanders have what it takes to break through here. The Seahawks this season have only been losing to the really good teams in my eyes as of late, teams like Baltimore and Cincinnati and I would not lump Washington in that mix. Give me the Seahawks here.
