Seahawks at Eagles: Prop bets to make for Monday Night Football
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 11:30 a.m. ET.
Seahawks RB Carlos Hyde UNDER 37.5 rushing and receiving yards (-106)
Hyde is coming off a season-high 79 rushing yards, 16 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 11. Still, he’s about to be relegated back to the No. 2 role with RB Chris Carson returning to the lineup from a foot injury.
Hyde totaled 83 yards from scrimmage from Weeks 1-3 with both running backs playing full games. He didn’t have more than 37 total yards in any one of those games. Carson will play the lion’s share of offensive snaps, including nearly all passing-down work.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders OVER 14.5 rushing attempts (-115)
Sanders has topped 14 carries in each of his two games since returning from injury, and he’s averaging 5.7 yards per attempt on the season. Philadelphia’s pass-play percentage of 63.48% ranks fifth in the league, but at 3-6-1, it’s clearly not working. The Eagles rank 28th in the league with 5.0 yards per play.
With the division title in danger of slipping away, look for Eagles head coach Doug Pederson to finally commit to Sanders as the team’s most effective offensive player.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson UNDER 24.5 completions (-118)
Wilson has been held below 24.5 completions just five times this season but in each of his last two games. The return of Carson should also put more of a focus on the rushing attack with Seattle ranking 10th with a pass-play percentage of 61.62%. The Seahawks are just one of three teams with a winning record in the top 10.
Eagles QB Carson Wentz UNDER 237.5 passing yards (-112)
This prop pairs with our Over on Sanders’ rushing attempts. It also factors in rookie QB Jalen Hurts reportedly being in line for more playing time this week.
Wentz has been held below this number in four of his last five games, and he should still fall shy with a more pass-heavy game script due to the factors noted above.
Seahawks TE Will Dissly to score a touchdown (+550)
Dissly has just three red-zone targets and a lone touchdown catch this season. The third-year pro had 4 TDs in just six games before losing his season to injury last year and is in line to be the new TE1 in Seattle with Greg Olsen lost for the year.
Olsen ranked third among Seahawks pass-catchers with 11 red-zone targets but had just a single TD.
