The Commanders? Not so much. 

Washington has been banged up for weeks with stars Jayden Daniels, Deebo Samuel, Terry McLaurin, and others missing various amounts of time. 

No matter who is on the field, the Commanders haven’t looked good at all this season, falling to so-so teams like the Bears, Cowboys, and Falcons while pulling out two of their three wins against the dregs of the league, the Raiders and Giants. 

Meanwhile, the 5-2 Seahawks are still being discounted by oddsmakers. 

Seattle has yet to lose by more than a score while looking like a juggernaut on defense and solid on offense with Sam Darnold leading the way. 

With more talent on both sides of the ball, expect the Seahawks to take this one by more than a field goal.

Denver Broncos (+2.5) over HOUSTON TEXANS

Two of the best defenses in the NFL will square off in Houston. 

But only one of these teams has looked like a powerhouse on offense of late. 

Over their last five quarters played, the Broncos have dropped an insane 77 points, thanks in large part to their wild 33-point fourth quarter against the Giants. 


Betting on the NFL?


They followed that up with another offensive outburst against the Cowboys while holding Dallas, who came in as one of the top scoring attacks in the league, to 22 points. 

The Texans offense and C.J. Stroud looked improved against the 49ers last week, but they were facing an injury-riddled San Francisco defense. 

It’ll be much tougher on Sunday. 

LAST WEEK: 1-1. Patriots (W), Falcons (L).

2025 SEASON: 7-9.
