From the booth

The Seahawks come in as the clear favorites here at sixty-seven percent to win, and you can see why with the betting market really backing Seattle and that Elo rating advantage showing up on the field. The Patriots are fighting an uphill battle at thirty-three percent, though they do have a slight edge in where we are in the season. Seattle's been playing better football lately too, and when you combine that with everything else, that three and a half point spread looks about right.
