Thursday Night Football Best Bets Week 6
On Thursday Night with a divisional matchup, you can usually count on some of the familiarity between the teams to dictate the action. But with a whole new coaching staff in Seattle, it will be interesting to see what Mike McDonald has in store for this 49ers attack. It also bears watching what Ryan Grubb tries to do against the Nick Sorenson, 49ers defense. Here are the picks we like tonight:
Kenneth Walker III Over 56.5 rush yards: Walker has as substantial point of attack advantage on the right side and he's got 6 carries over 10 yards in just 37 attempts this season. He's still getting his sea legs back after an oblique injury earlier in the season, but we look for him to get back closer to the 20 carries he had against the Broncos in week 1. At 5.5 yards per carry, if he even get close to that number, he'll go over in this one.
Deebo Samuel Over 54.5 receiving yards: Samuel has had trouble getting off man coverage this season, but we're expecting to see a fair share of zone from the Seahawks in this game. He's gone over this number in 6 of 7 career games against the Seahawks. Yes, the coaching staff is different, but a lot of the personnel is the same. Deebo should have some run after the catch opportunities in this game and create enough damage to go over this total.
Jordan Mason Over 81.5 rush yards: Mason will do most of his damage running behind All-Pro left tackles Trent Williams and we see a huge point of attack advantage for him on the left side in this game. He's averaging over 100 rush yards per game and we don't see a big reason for that number to go down against the Seattle defense. Mason continues to roll and goes over his rushing total in this one.
As always, we look forward to the conversation, debate and your feedback. Hit us at @fieldvisionmi on X, @fieldvisionsports on Instagram, or on our website www.fieldvisionsports.com.
