In the meantime, the 3-3 LA Rams are set to host the 3-2 Pittsburgh Steelers in what ought to be a decently contested sport. Whereas these video games are thrilling as Seahawks followers, it’s onerous for me to not disguise my pleasure for that Sunday evening sport. The Miami Dolphins are touring to Pennsylvania to tackle the Philadelphia Eagles. Two 5-1 squads enter, just one leaves. Then the opposite one leaves barely later after being declared the victor. Oh, did I point out the thrilling firepower that this sport ought to showcase within the type of two legit Tremendous Bowl contenders? Sure, I I’m fairly positive I did… most definitely.
Let’s make some picks!
Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks — 1:05pm — FOX — O/U 44.5
The Seahawks are favored by 7.5 factors at dwelling in opposition to the touring Cardinals, in keeping with DraftKings Sportsbook. If this weren’t a divisional matchup, I might be extra inclined to take the bait. However division rivals all the time appear to throw one another a curveball, so I’m going to exit on a limb and say that I anticipate this sport to be nearer than a landing. Nonetheless, I don’t assume that will probably be due to the protection; Devon Witherspoon has been a revelation, and whereas we’ve got seen some regression from Tariq Woolen, we all know that he’s going to search out his strategy to get the ball in his palms quickly. Keep in mind Josh Dobbs? Cardinals followers do, however they’d moderately overlook. A lot in order that some are clamoring for Clayton Tune. The Playing cards will put up a struggle, however the Seahawks will go away the victors.
The choose: Underneath 44.5 factors, Seahawks win straight up however Cardinals cowl
Pittsburgh Steelers @ LA Rams — 1:05pm — FOX — O/U 43.5
The Rams tackle the Steelers in LA, the place DraftKings Sportsbook lists them as slight dwelling favorites to win by a subject purpose. The Rams are higher than many anticipated this yr, however that shouldn’t come as an enormous shock; Sean McVay continues to be a succesful coach, and so they have a mix of confirmed veterans and younger expertise that makes them harmful on any given Sunday. On the flip aspect, the Steelers could also be comfortable to see some enchancment from Kenny Pickett in yr two, however there’s a sense amongst followers that neither he nor OC Matt Canada can ever lead a threatening offense. Perhaps in Pittsburgh I might give the Steelers a greater shot, however I feel the Rams are the clear favorites in my thoughts.

Miami Dolphins @ Philadelphia Eagles — 5:20pm — NBC — O/U 43.5

And it is smart — these are two of the premier groups within the NFL this season. Whereas it’s strategy to early to say that this can be a potential Tremendous Bowl preview…. this can be a potential Tremendous Bowl preview. Now, I’m going to get wild with this one; I’m taking the Dolphins. They haven’t performed a staff pretty much as good because the Eagles but, however the Eagles haven’t performed a staff with an offense just like the Dolphins. The Philly protection has solely held two groups underneath 20 factors this season, and the identical may very well be mentioned for Miami. Count on some scoring.
