Both of these teams have shown their own strengths and weaknesses that bettors can make the most of, especially with a few key players in the spotlight. Here are the 5 best prop picks worthy of your attention for this highly anticipated game.
Player Prop Odds: -115
Josh Jacobs has been an absolute workhorse for the Packers for most of the season. He’s racked up a whopping 1,053 rushing yards with 4.4 yards per carry and doesn’t look like he’s slowing down. He’s well on track to have a 1,500-yard season.
He’s cleared 77.5 rushing yards in 8 of his last 9 games, and his consistent and dominant production makes this prop a solid bet we just couldn’t overlook.
On top of that, Seattle’s defense has struggled against the run. They rank 21st in rushing yards allowed per game at a staggering 126.5.
Taking it even a step further, Jacobs has also averaged 88.5 yards per game over his last 5 showings and he continues to dominate week after week.
We’re looking for Jacobs to pound the ground against a soft Seahawks front and comfortably hit this mark in this SNF matchup.
Player Prop Odds: +135
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has emerged as one of the most reliable targets in Seattle’s passing game. This is especially true with Geno Smith looking for consistency through the air.
He’s been heating up as well as he’s posting 69+ receiving yards in each of the Seahawks’ last 6 games while averaging 7.6 targets per game during that stretch. He’s not backing down and not slowing down. Smith loves him as a target.
Green Bay’s secondary has shown that they struggle against slot receivers. They’ve given up 222.1 passing yards per game which puts them at 22nd in the NFL.
Smith-Njigba’s volume and role in the offense makes him going over 5.5 receptions at +135 odds an excellent value pick that’s hard to pass up.
Player Prop Odds: -115
Jordan Love has quietly put together an impressive season so far with 21 passing touchdowns and a 96.4 QB rating. He’s not getting the spotlight we expected, but he’s getting it done.
He’s thrown for 2+ TDs in 3 of his last 4 games and has a great matchup against a leaky Seattle defense, which has allowed opposing QBs to thrive through the air in the red zone.
The Seahawks rank 10th in passing yards allowed per game but have surrendered 19 passing touchdowns this season which puts them in the middle of the pack.
With Love averaging 247.6 passing yards per game, we expect him to take advantage of Seattle’s defense near the red zone and toss a couple of TDs in primetime.
Player Prop Odds: -115
Geno Smith isn’t known for his rushing ability, of course, but this number feels a bit too low to overlook.
Over his last 5 games, Smith has blown through 12.5 rushing yards in 4 of them, averaging 22.6 rushing yards per game in that span. So, he’s not a scrambler, but he can if he needs to.
The Packers’ pass rush has been nothing less than solid as they’re ranking 13th in sacks this season (33 total).
If Green Bay can generate some pressure, Smith will likely scramble to keep drives alive. He’ll either find Smith-Njigba as we mentioned, or hit the ground running.
It only takes a couple of quick scrambles for him to hit the over on this one, making this a sneaky good-player prop bet.
Player Prop Odds: +220
Jayden Reed has been one of Jordan Love’s favorite red-zone targets this season. He’s scored 6 touchdowns while averaging 15.8 yards per reception. Remember when we said Love would be looking for red-zone targets? He’s one of the big ones despite Love typically using his whole arsenal.
Seattle has allowed 11 touchdowns to WRs this season, and Reed’s ability to stretch the field makes him a constant threat they’ll have to keep their eyes on. At +220 odds, there’s great value in backing Reed to find pay dirt on this Sunday night football matchup.
Sunday night’s matchup between the Packers and Seahawks has plenty of opportunities for you to capitalize on player props.
Whether it’s Josh Jacobs punishing Seattle’s run defense with the big yardage or Jaxon Smith-Njigba continuing his strong streak with the targets, these props provide a decent mix of value and confidence heading into tonight’s game.
Even if you don’t go with these props and find props of your own, there’s tons of betting action when it comes to the Packers and the Seahawks.
