Seahawks vs Raiders NFL Week 10 Preview
Seattle Seahawks Betting Preview: QB Woes
The Seahawks offense has not fared well under new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, who took over for the departed Klint Kubiak.
Seattle has not found an effective ground game all year and the passing game has been a mixed bag despite the brilliance of Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Last week against a depleted and objectively bad Cardinals defense, the Seahawks could only muster 17 points at home.
To make matters worse, quarterback Drew Lock is visibly not healthy. He was holding his side last week and is dealing with a tricky oblique injury, and it completely sapped the offense of any verticality. The Seahawks failed to record a single passing play over 20 yards — the first time they've won a game doing that since 2000. Lock is also dealing with tendinitis in his right elbow — though he carries no injury designation for this game.
If Lock takes one hard hit from Maxx Crosby, the Seahawks could be in massive trouble.
Las Vegas Raiders Betting Preview: Fernandomania
The Raiders defense is horrendous, having allowed at least 30 points in six straight games. However, Seattle simply does not possess the offensive firepower to exploit them the way the Rams, 49ers, and Bills have.
The most fascinating angle of this game is the element of the unknown.
Rookie Fernando Mendoza is making his first career start at quarterback for the Raiders. I am a bit of a Mendoza truther; he adds an element of mobility and RPO capability to the offense that they completely lacked under Kirk Cousins.
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald has no professional tape to prepare for this offensive iteration.
Meanwhile, Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak knows Seattle's offensive and defensive schemes as well as anyone in the league. He knows exactly how to neutralize Jaxon Smith-Njigba and will force Seattle's secondary options to beat him.
Seahawks vs Raiders Prediction, Betting Analysis
The Seahawks are laying nearly a full touchdown on the road with a broken offense and a banged-up quarterback.
The Raiders inject massive variance into this game with a mobile rookie quarterback in Fernando Mendoza that Seattle can't really prepare for.
I'll take the points with Las Vegas.
Pick: Raiders +6.5 (-115)
