Expert Top Pick of the Day: Seattle Seahawks vs Washington Football Team
This Monday night, the NFL features a very evenly matched game when the Seahawks go on the road to play Washington. Seattle has lost their last two games, while the Washington Football Team has won their second in a row after beating the Carolina Panthers.
The WFT has made a complete turnaround after one of the biggest upsets of the year in which they beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are still one of the favorites to make it to the Super Bowl. Since then, Washington has shown a very different side of their game and should be up to the challenge against the always dangerous Seahawks.
Led by star QB Russell Wilson, who has been struggling with injuries lately, Seattle is on a mission to get back on track. They’ll be facing a very motivated Washington Football Team that has been making a surprising comeback at this point of the season.
