NFL Week 16 Betting Odds Preview
First place in the NFC West is up for grabs in Week 16 NFL action when the Los Angeles Rams visit the Seattle Seahawks.
At Bovada Sportsbook, the Seahawks are a slim 1.5-point favorite. Seattle is coming off a 20-15 win over the Washington Football Team as a 6-point favorite. After failing to cover the spread, the Seahawks dropped to 2-5 against the spread in their last seven. Seattle has been a solid UNDER play for totals bettors lately with six straight UNDERs.
The Rams were shocked by the then-winless New York Jets in a 23-20 loss as a 17-point favorite last week. As an underdog, the Rams are 4-1 ATS in their last five games, and like Seattle they’ve paid UNDER bettors lately at 9-2 UNDER in their last 11 games.
In Week 10, the Rams defeated the Seahawks 23-16 as a 3-point favorite. Including that win, the Rams are 5-1 SU and 4-2 ATS in their last six vs Seattle.
