The Seattle Seahawks will be gunning for a fourth straight home victory when they play host to the Washington Commanders on Sunday in NFL Week 10 action.

The Seahawks enter the weekend perched as 6.5-point home favourites on the NFL Week 10 odds. The Commanders lag as +225 NFL moneyline underdogs, and the total is listed at 44.5.
NFL Point Spread and Betting Analysis
Last week’s 37-3 loss to the Ravens marks the Seahawks worst defeat since dropping a 42-7 decision to the Los Angeles Rams in 2017. However, this team has shown its resilience by following up on each of its three most recent regular season defeats with big wins, including one-sided victories over Arizona and the New York Jets. However, wins at the sportsbook have come at a premium, and in bunches. Seattle has covered the spread in just one of four games since going 3-0 ATS early in the season. And that win streak came on the heels of a dismal 1-8 ATS run that dates to last November. Overall, the Seahawks have also been streaky on offence, scoring just 15 points per game over their past four outings, and have generated just one scoring run over that stretch.
The Commanders arrive in Seattle aiming to tally a fourth straight road win over the Seahawks. Washington has taken two of three overall from the Seahawks while going 3-0 ATS, and has limited Seattle to just 16 points per game in their past three dates at Lumen Field. Washington allowed the Patriots inside their 40-yard line on just one drive after halftime last week, and has surrendered 17 or fewer points in three of four outings after surrendering at least 33 points in three of their first four games. However, it has been a year since this team last tallied consecutive wins on the toad.
Washington Commanders
Sam Howell once again lit things up last weekend, tossing for 325 yards and one touchdown after racking up 397 yards and four scores in a heartbreaking 38-31 loss to Philadelphia two weeks ago. Howell has benefited from better protection from his offensive line, and has been sacked just four times in the past two weeks after getting sacked 40 times in his first seven appearances. Howell may not have the benefit of targeting Curtis Samuel, who has been limited at practice by a toe injury. However, Jahan Dotson has filled the void while racking up 88.5 receiving yards per game and two TD catches over the past two weeks. Rusher Brian Robinson has been steady while averaging 62 rushing yards over the past two games, and has scored three times in four outings. Robinson has also recorded at least 20 receiving yards four times this season, and offers solid value as a -115 bet to record OVER 56.5 rushing and receiving yards on Sunday.
Seattle Seahawks
Geno Smith will be looking to return to form after turning his worst performance of the season last week in Baltimore, where he completed just 46.4% of pass attempts for just 157 yards, no scores, and one pick. However, Smith has regularly found the end zone on home turf, recording 19 total touchdowns while throwing for at least one score in 11 straight home dates. Considering the Commanders have surrendered multiple scoring passes in six of eight games, Smith is a solid -120 bet to throw for OVER 1.5 TDs. But the Seahawks pivot offers equally good value as a +105 bet on the NFL player props to throw at least one pick in a fifth straight game. Indeed, this team’s success will hinge on Smith considering the state of the Seahawks backfield, particularly top rusher Kenneth Walker III, who missed practice on Wednesday with a chest injury that leaves him questionable for Sunday.
