The Seattle Seahawks (6-5) and New York Jets (3-8) will face off in NFL Week 13 at 1 p.m. ET from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. The game will be live on FOX and can be streamed on YouTube TV.
The Jets are favored by 1 point with the game total set at 41.5 points scored. The Jets are -115 to win outright on the moneyline, and the Seahawks are -105.
Let's get into my Seahawks vs. Jets picks and NFL picks.
The Seahawks won 16-6 last week over the Cardinals. Seattle has allowed just 23 points over the last two weeks in wins over the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona. The Jets are coming off their bye week but have lost seven of their last eight games. Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdowns against the Colts in a losing effort two weeks ago.
Seahawks vs. Jets Prediction
Spread
This is a pick'em on the moneyline. I'll focus my bet there instead of taking or laying a point.
Moneyline
I'll back the Jets here, ideally at a plus number.
As I lay out below, I'm betting on New York coming off a bye against a Seahawks team that's traveling across the country and coming off back-to-back massive divisional wins.
My Pick: Jets ML (-115)
Over/Under
I'm passing on betting this game's total.

Seahawks vs. Jets Preview
Expectations for the Jets have been ridiculously high since acquiring Davante Adams.
They were favorites in both Arizona and Pittsburgh, chalk at home to the Texans, favorites by a touchdown on the road to a divisional opponent and more.
Now, New York is catching a point at home in Week 13.
I’m not calling this Sunday matchup against the Seahawks the turning point to contention for the Jets, but it's a situation where expectations are moderately tapered.
The Jets enter this game with extended rest. It’s typically baked in but worth noting that they’re hosting a West Coast team (full of young starters) playing in the early window on the East Coast.
The Jets have been one of the luckiest teams in football this season, about 15 slots worse than the Seahawks, per our Dr. Nick Giffen.
These teams are like a mirror image of one another: Old quarterbacks with capped ceilings; dynamic running backs; WR1s who demand the ball; stud pass-catchers from The Ohio State; defenses consistently lauded for their youth and ranginess, which is used to then commit penalties (the Jets are second in DPIs committed; the Seahawks are illegal-contact bandits).
In the case where we know both teams’ identities, I’ll side with the home team and trust that Aaron Rodgers’ pep talk post-Thanksgiving was something of the ages.
My Pick: Jets ML (-115)
