New England Patriots vs Seattle Seahawks Prediction

I’m on the Seahawks here. I get the allure of backing the Pats as a home dog, but I think that Game was more about the Bengals shooting themselves in the foot and getting off to a slow start year after year. I think that the Seahawks will get back to it here and I think we’ll see the Patriots that we’ve been expecting to see up to this point. Give me Seattle on the road.
