The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 3.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked really good this season with their 10-3 record overall but lately they haven't looked as good with 2 losses in a row. They just lost badly by double digits in both games and are coming off a loss to a rival in the Cowboys, but they will be looking to bounce back here as they are still an elite team in the NFL. Meanwhile, the Seahawks haven't looked great this season with their 6-7 record overall and their playoff hopes are slowly going down the drain. Geno Smith missed their game last week in their loss to the 49ers and even though he will likely be back for this game he is still playing banged up and has been regressing in this offense over his last few games. The Seahawks are a team trending in the wrong direction while the Eagles are still an elite team and will be looking to get a much needed bounce back win here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game.
