The Seahawks are better than anybody expected them to be this season. Still, they’re not getting much love from the oddsmakers. Heading into their Week 5 matchup with the Saints, they’ve been listed as 4.5-point underdogs by Tipico Sportsbook.
New Orleans is coming off another dramatic and hilarious loss to the Vikings, courtesy of a double-doinked miss by kicker Will Lutz from 61 yards out at the last second. The Saints played Minnesota in London, which would normally mean that they would have this week off but they elected to push their bye week back to later in the season. That could mean Seattle’s players will be a bit fresher having not had to adjust for travel.
