There are those of you that may recall the Buffalo Battle Trend.....
After a team battled Buffalo, they were so beat up they failed to win and/or cover the follwoing game.
This year it's the Seahawks.
I wrote about it in Week 7s Free Pick email I sent out, unfortunately that's when AZ played and the trend lost. :facepalm:
Play against any team in their ?Next Game? after they played Seattle
If you?ve followed the above trend blindly, you would be looking at a 7-1 record both straight up and against the spread.
The only team to post a win after playing Seattle this season was Arizona, who defeated the Falcons 27-13 at home in Week 8.
Another common theme with the losses has been the points allowed by the teams who just faced the Seahawks. In the eight games this season, the teams have given up an average of 26.9 points per game in the next game.
Miami opened as a 3.5 point road favorite against Tampa Bay and most betting shops have dropped the number to 2.5 as of late Sunday.
