Week 5 Thursday Night Pick

Seattle sporting its Action Green Uniforms








Italicized for win
Bolded for spread

Los Angeles Rams @ Seattle Seahawks (-1.5) - This matchup features two 3-1 teams; only the San Francisco 49ers have a better record at 3-0 in the NFC.   Russell Wilson ranks 10th in passing yards this season and looks to record his first 200 plus passing yard game against a Sean McVay coached team.  Chris Carson appears to have put his fumbling woes behind him with a solid performance against the Cardinals totaling 145 yards from scrimmage.  Tyler Lockett who is 10th in receiving yards faces a tough matchup with Marcus Peters.  Then again Peters didn't do much to slow down Mike Evans of the Bucs last week.

The LA RAMs appear to be reeling a bit after a 55-40 loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  Jared Goff and Todd Gurley have regressed from last season, probably due to poor offensive line play.  Goff has also struggled on the road and Seattle looks ripe to take advantage of its 12th man especially on a short week

The Seahawks will be wearing their Nicklelodeon Slime Green uniforms, also formally known as "Action Green" for this matchup.  Courtesy of plusevsports, the Seahawks are 3-0 in these uniforms while holding their opponents to a combined 26 points
