Green Bay Packers vs Seattle Seahawks

After a long wait and a grueling preseason, the Seattle Seahawks begin their Super Bowl defense at home when they welcome the Seattle Seahawks in what is being dubbed the “Revenge of the Fail Mary.” We want to keep things positive though, so let’s forget about the replacement referees for now.

Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers are believed by many to be one of the Super Bowl favorites for this season along with the Seahawks, so it will be interesting to see which team is able to get their season off on the right foot.

Keys to Victory

For the Seahawks, it will come down to their defense getting after Rodgers and finding a way to put him on his back. If not, Rodgers will be able to test Richard Sherman and the tough Seahawks secondary, while Eddie Lacy will be pounding away at the defensive line.

It really is that simple.

When the Seahawks defense is at their best, no one can beat them. Just ask Peyton Manning.

Betting Odds

Point Spread: Seahawks -6
Moneyline: Seahawks -240, Packers +220
O/U: 46.5

Prediction

In the end, the Seahawks defense should be able to come through once again and get the team’s Super Bowl defense off on the right foot. However, if the two teams meet later in the postseason, it would not be a surprise to see the result going the opposite way.

Final Score: Seahawks: 17, Packers: 14
