Pick

New York has not played well against the 49ers and the Cowboys, which is expected, but they nearly lost to Arizona in their second game. The Seahawks have won two games in a row, and while their defense has struggled, the offense has been very good. Seattle has allowed 27, 31, and 30 points in their first three games, so this is an opportunity for the New York offense to move the ball. I think the Seattle offense will continue their strong play, but I also expect Jones and the Giants offense to score some points. I like the over here.
