Analyzing Monday Night Football’s New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks Week 7 odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The New Orleans Saints (3-2) travel to meet the Seattle Seahawks (2-4) at Lumen Field for Monday Night Football in Week 7. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET and the game will be televised on ESPN. Below, we look at the Saints vs. Seahawks odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Saints are coming off a bye week following a 33-22 win at the Washington Football Team in Week 5. After losing at the Carolina Panthers in Week 2, New Orleans has won and covered its past two games on the road.

With QB Russell Wilson (finger) on the injured reserve list, the Seahawks had backup QB Geno Smith start his first game of the season in Week 7’s Sunday Night Football game at the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Seahawks lost 23-20 in overtime but covered the spread as 5.5-point underdogs and cashed Under tickets a fourth consecutive time.

Saints at Seahawks odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Saints 24, Seahawks 17

Money line

The Saints (-220) will cost you more than two times your potential return. That’s just a little too expensive, especially for a road team in front of a boisterous and rowdy home crowd notorious for spurring on the home side.

AVOID and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

The SAINTS -4.5 (-105) are worth playing lightly. Even though Smith has held down the fort and kept the Seahawks in games lately, mistakes late in contests against the Los Angeles Rams and the Steelers have cost Seattle dearly.

If Seattle looks to take pressure off of Smith in the run game, it’s likely not going to happen. New Orleans ranks second in the NFL with just 79.0 rushing yards per game allowed, and it’s fourth in the league with just 18.2 PPG allowed.

Over/Under

The UNDER 41.5 (-110) is the play as the Saints have a suffocating defense, and the Seahawks are using their backup quarterback. The scoring drives will be few and far between as the defenses show out.

The Saints rank 10th in the NFL with 125.8 rushing yards per game, and they’ll look to keep chewing up big chunks of real estate on the ground while running the clock at the same time. Under bettors love running teams.
