Why Washington can cover
Receiver Terry McLaurin is having a productive season. The third-year vet from Ohio State ranks 14th in the league in receiving yards (735) despite playing one fewer game than five receivers ahead of him entering the week. In last week's win over Carolina, McLaurin had five catches for 103 yards and one touchdown.
In addition, Washington coach Ron Rivera said that both receiver Curtis Samuel and tight end Logan Thomas are expected to be in the lineup after missing significant time with injuries. Samuel, who has 189 catches and 14 touchdowns in his five-year career, has played just two games this season because of a groin injury. Thomas, who set career-highs in receptions (72), receiving yards (670) and receiving touchdowns (six) last season, has been limited to just four games because of a hamstring ailment.
Why the Seahawks can cover
Seattle is strong in primetime games. Since Pete Carroll took over as coach in 2010, the Seahawks are 32-11-1 under the lights, outscoring opponents 1,128 to 792, or 7.6 points per game. They also are 11-3 on Monday Night Football over that time.
In addition, Seattle faces a Washington defense that has struggled keeping teams out of the end zone this season. Washington is giving up 26.7 points per game. Just four teams allow more: the Texans (2-9), Lions (0-10-1), Falcons (5-6) and Jets (3-8).
