Week 17: Seahawks vs. Jets

Bob Condotta (10-5)

Seahawks 17, Jets 13: The Jets defense — statistically playing about as well as the 49ers for the season and we saw how that turned out — could make this game a real slog. But the Seahawks are desperate and at home, and that should be enough. 

Adam Jude (6-9)

Seahawks 23, Jets 19: Kenneth Walker III’s return to his midseason form was the most important thing that happened to the Seahawks in last week’s loss at Kansas City, and that ought to open things up for Geno Smith and the pass attack over the final two games.

Larry Stone (8-7)

Seahawks 27, Jets 20: Yeah, the Seahawks are in a nosedive with five losses in their last six games. But the Jets are right there with them, losing five of six themselves, and four in a row. Both team are fighting for their playoff lives. With the likelihood of Tyler Lockett returning, I’ll give the slight edge at home to Seattle.

Matt Calkins (7-8)

Seahawks 21, Jets 17: Home field hasn’t meant a lot lately for the Seahawks, nor has desperation. But in the must-win game of the season, those factors will combine to keep Seattle’s slim playoff hopes alive.
