Seattle Seahawks: Betting odds and lines

The Seattle Seahawks are a healthy team again and the betting odds make them a favorite to win this football season.

Seattle Seahawks: Betting odds and lines The Seattle Seahawks stats from the last football season will tell you only one thing - even crippled by injuries, this team is still one of the NFL leaders. The Seahawks were able to reach playoff, despite the absence of key players such as RB Shaun Alexander and QB Matt Hasselbeck, and got lucky against Dallas but lost to Chicago.

But the Seattle Seahawks are health entering this football season and we'll watch them in their 2005 Super Bowl form. Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck may miss the departed WR Darrell Jackson (to the 49ers in exchange for a fourth-round draft choice) and TE Jeramy Stevens, but veterans such as Bobby Engman and Deion Branch are ready to help. Shaun Alexander came back during the playoffs last season and proved he is still one of the best.

In their last preseason game the Seattle Seahawks came back to defeat the Oakland Raiders 19-14 at Qwest Field. Seneca Wallace completed 12-of-26 pass attempts for 181 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions for the Seahawks. And in the third week, the Seahawks dropped the Minnesota Vikings 30-13. Brooks Bollinger was 6-for-11 for 52 yards and two interceptions, and Adrian Peterson rushed ten times for 41 yards for the Seahawks.
