This week's line suggests a passing game script for the Seahawks, who are -6-point underdogs.Given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the Seattle Seahawks to run on 35.5% of their opportunities: the lowest rate among all teams this week.The 2nd-smallest volume of plays in the NFL have been called by the Seahawks since the start of last season (just 54.8 per game on average).This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and better passing effectiveness.Since the start of last season, the formidable Detroit Lions run defense has conceded a meager 86.0 adjusted yards per game on the ground to opposing offenses: the fewest in football.
