Seattle Seahawks vs New York Jets Prediction
New York limps into this game after losing seven of their last eight games, but they will look to bounce back at home here. The Jets have been inconsistent on offense, but their defense has been consistently poor this year. New York has allowed at least 25 points in four of their last five games and they have allowed a total of 59 points in their last two. Seattle is coming off of a big win against Arizona and they will look for their third straight win here. The Seahawks have allowed just 23 total points in their last two games and I like them to pick up a win here.
