Seahawks vs. Lions Prediction

I’m on the Lions here. I get why the Seahawks are worth a look as you see points with a 3-0 team on the surface and immediately see value, but I think it’s fool’s gold as you look at the level of competition that the Seahawks have had and it leaves a lot to be desired. This Lions team has a solid offensive line and an underrated defense in my opinion, and I think that the Lions get the job done here. Give me Detroit in this one.
