Seattle Seahawks Form
Seattle head out on the road on a short week looking to rebound from a big division defeat – their second loss of the season.
The Seahawks began their defence of the Vince Lombardi Trophy with a 13-10 win over New England in a rematch from last season’s Super Bowl.
They backed that up in Arizona with a 31-7 blowout of the Cardinals, only to then suffer a surprise 33-31 defeat when they visited Washington.
Seattle rebounded a week later with a 30-23 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers, but they failed to follow that up.
The Seahawks go into this matchup on the back for a 32-29 defeat to division rivals San Francisco.
Denver Broncos Form
Denver return home looking to build on last weekend’s win over a division rival, which improved their record to 3-2.
The Broncos opened the season on the road and suffered a 31-10 defeat at the hands of Kansas City.
They bounced back from that loss over the next couple of weeks, recording back-to-back home wins over Jacksonville, 20-13, and the Los Angeles Rams, 30-26.
Denver failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 24-14 at San Francisco, but they did issue an immediate response.
The Broncos went back to the West Coast last Sunday to record a 23-17 win against division rivals, the Los Angeles Chargers.
Verdict
Both teams have had their issues through five weeks, but we are leaning towards Denver with the points.
Home advantage is huge for the Broncos, especially on a shortened week, and that defense can help them at least stay within a field goal on Thursday night.
