In this article we will formulate a Seattle Seahawks vs Cleveland Browns prediction for this NFL Preseason game on Saturday, August 24th at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this preseason battle in week three.
Seattle Seahawks Betting Preview
The Seattle Seahawks are 1-1 this preseason after they lost to Tennessee by a score of 16-15 last week. Seattle took a 15-13 lead with 1:55 left in the game, but they allowed a walk-off 46 yard field goal for the loss. The Seahawks were out gained by a total of 338-239 and they went just 2-9 on third downs in the game. Sam Howell threw for 153 yards and one touchdown, while PJ Walker added 38 yards. Kenny McIntosh rushed for 46 yards on eight carries. Seattle defeated the Chargers by a score of 16-3 in their first preseason game.
Seattle went 2-1 in the preseason last year, which started with a 24-13 win over Minnesota. The Seahawks defeated the Cowboys by a score of 22-14 in the second game, before losing to Green Bay by a score of 19-15 in the third game. I have not heard if Geno Smith will play in this game, but even if he does, the majority of the work will be with Sam Howell or PJ Walker under center.
Cleveland Browns Betting Preview
The Cleveland Browns are 0-2 this preseason after they lost to Minnesota by a score of 27-12 in their last game. Cleveland tied the game at seven in the first quarter, but they were out scored 20-5 to end the game with the loss. The Browns were out gained by a total of 303-288 and turned the ball over three times in the game. Tyler Huntley threw for 135 yards and two interceptions, while DTR threw for 126 yards and one interception. Huntley rushed for 19 yards on four carries, while D’Onta Foreman rushed for 18 yards and one score. Cleveland lost to Green Bay by a score of 23-10 in their first preseason game.
Cleveland went 1-2-1 in the preseason in 2023, which started with a 17-15 loss against Washington. The Browns did beat the Jets by a score of 21-16 in their second game, but they tied Philadelphia at 18 in the third game. Cleveland did lose to Kansas City by a score of 33-32 in the finale. Cleveland is expected to start Watson in this game, but I am not sure if Winston will see any playing time. Beyond that, we should see plenty of Huntley and DTR.
Seattle Seahawks vs Cleveland Browns Prediction
Cleveland comes into this matchup trying to find their first win of the preseason, but they need to find more offense, as they have only scored 22 points in the first two games. Seattle has won one game and lost game to start the preseason and they have also struggled to score points. The Browns are expected to give their starters some playing time in this game, but I do think the backup quarterback advantage goes to the Browns. I know DTR and Huntley had some turnover issues in their last game, but they did move the ball pretty well. My Seattle Seahawks vs Cleveland Browns prediction is for the Browns to win.
