Patriots vs Seahawks prediction
New England Patriots at Seattle Seahawks, NFL Week 1. Our model projects the game, the sportsbooks price it, and the two numbers sit side by side below. The priced plays — the safest side, the value bet, the win + kicker combo and the props — are on the members' board; the projection is public, and every pick is graded here after the game.
Seahawks 28, Patriots 20
Seahawks by 7.9 · 47 total points
The model projects Seattle Seahawks to beat New England Patriots 28–20; the market agrees on the favorite and prices the spread at 3. On the total, the model's 47 sits above the market's 44.5. The raw model gives Seattle Seahawks a 75.6% chance to win; the moneyline price implies 60.9%. We never bet the raw model — the published probability on every play blends it with the market, and that blended number is what the board shows members.
A projection is an expected outcome, not a promise: the other side happens, and favorites lose. 21+ and only where sports betting is legal.
