\"Seattle<\/a>
Seattle Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch has struggled to get going over the last four weeks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Arizona is 6-1 SUATS over its last seven games, including a 37-34 overtime victory over the Tennessee Titans as 2.5-point road favorites in Week 15, while going OVER the betting total of 43.\u00a0 The Cardinals have been averaging just about 30 points a game over their last seven contests, which is important to consider when looking over the NFL betting lines, considering the Seahawks have given up more than 17 points just twice at CenturyLink Field during the 2013 campaign.\u00a0 Arizona is 2-15 SU and 7-10 ATS as a underdog of 3.5 to 9.5 points the last two-plus seasons.<\/p>\n

The Cardinals will be out to avenge last year\u2019s 58-0 road defeat to the Seahawks last season, as the locker room has mentioned that was a completely different team back then.\u00a0 \u201cThat wasn\u2019t we,\u201d commented Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians.\u00a0 Arizona may have to play this game without the services of wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who suffered a concussion last Sunday.\u00a0 He has been limited to 82 yards on seven catches in his last three games against the Seahawks.<\/p>\n

Seattle has the opportunity of playing at home through the Super Bowl by picking up a win in this spot, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your NFL betting picks, considering the franchise has won its last 13 regular-season games at this venue.\u00a0 The Seahawks sacked Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer seven times and intercepted him twice in a 34-22 Week 7 win in Arizona.\u00a0 Seattle is 9-0 SUATS as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points the last two-plus seasons.<\/p>\n

The Seahawks will likely clinch the NFC West title if they can get the ground game going with running back Marshawn Lynch, who ran for 91 yards and a touchdown in the first meeting.\u00a0 In his last four games, Lynch has averaged 54.5 rushing yards, which could prove troublesome against a defense that leads the NFL in allowing just 83.2 yards per game on the ground.\u00a0 None of this may matter with quarterback Russell Wilson on the field, who has never lost in 14 games at this facility.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely back the Seahawks due to their 36-16-1 ATS mark in their last 53 home games.<\/p>\n
