SITUATIONAL NFL BLOWOUT ALERT (27-14 RUN!)
(NFL) Seattle vs. Cincinnati,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -110.00 Seattle (Away)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* SITUATIONAL BLOWOUT on the Seahawks.

The Seahawks continue to find ways to win, including on the road and I feel that they have much more than just a "punchers chance" here against this inconsistent Bengals team.

Seattle is 3-1 overall, including 2-0 on the road, while Cincinnati is 2-3, including 1-1 at home.

The Hawks though come out of their bye and I say it was at a really opportune time. If Seattle pulls off the minor upset here it heads home at 4-1 for two straight winnable games (Cards and Browns.)

Clearly the Bengals can't afford to look past anyone after their inconsistent start. I had Cincinnati last weekend in its 34-20 win at Arizona, but with a week off next week, followed by a game at the 49ers, the Bengals have lots of off-field scheduling issues which could have a mental effect on the home side on Sunday.

Joe Burrow had a big game against the Cardinals poor secondary, but doing the same thing against Seattle will be more difficult.

The Bengals have been terrible in stopping the run, which works in favor of the visitors as well.

Seattle has struggled against the pass, but Burrow hasn't been himself this year. With a week off to prepare, I like Geno Smith and the HAWKS to deliver the goods.

Good luck, NP
