Texans vs. Seahawks Betting Predictions

Texans vs. Seahawks Point Spread

Seattle matches up well here, especially on the ground. Houston’s defense has struggled to contain outside runs, which plays directly into the Seahawks’ strengths with Kenneth Walker’s burst and vision on perimeter concepts. Even with a backfield split, Walker should find plenty of success early, helping Seattle stay ahead of schedule.

The Texans’ defensive front can create pressure, but Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s versatility and elite route precision give Sam Darnold reliable answers in the short and intermediate passing game. The Seahawks’ physical defense can hold down the Texans. Lay the points with the home team.

Texans vs. Seahawks Over/Under

These teams allow just 31.7 combined points per game, an average well below this posted total. We’ll take the bait.

Seattle’s run game has had its issues and Houston has among the NFL’s premier defenses vs. the pass. Meanwhile, Houston’s offense faces a brutal matchup against one of the NFL’s most complete defenses. The Under is worth a secondary play for MNF.

Texans vs. Seahawks Same Game Parlay

1. Seahawks -3 (-110): The Seahawks’ home crowd and relentless front should overwhelm the Texans’ shaky offensive line, leading to turnovers, short fields, and ultimately a comfortable Seattle win.

2. Sam Darnold, Over 235.5 Pass Yards (-110): Darnold averages 257 ypg on the season. Houston allows just 194, the fifth-lowest in the NFL. But the Texans rank 28th in yards per attempt on play-action passes, and Darnold leads the NFL in yards per attempt and QB Rating using play-action.

3. Nick Chubb, Under 37.5 Rush Yards (-112): Chubb has gone Over this total in all three Texans games. But rookie Woody Marks is expected to get more carries going forward, and the Seahawks’ defense allows just 3.3 yards per rush attempt, tied for the lowest. That number at Lumen Field drops to 2.9 ypa.
