Seattle is a -1.5-point road favorite at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. Through their first three preseason games, the Seahawks have an average margin of victory of 17 points per game. On the opposite side of the spectrum, the Raiders are 1-8 SU and ATS over their last nine preseason games, including a current streak of 0-5 SU and ATS.
Making matters worse for Oakland, Seattle is 9-2 SU and 10-1 ATS in the last 11 preseason meetings between these two teams.
The Seahawks will be one of three teams looking to finish up a perfect preseason on Thursday. The other two 3-0 SU and ATS teams are the Baltimore Ravens, and more surprisingly, the Cleveland Browns. Baltimore is a 2.5-point road underdog facing the New Orleans Saints on Thursday, while Cleveland is a 3.5-point underdog on the road against the Chicago Bears.
Like Seattle, Baltimore has been a reliable team to bet on in the preseason for years, boasting a record of 12-3 SU and 11-2 ATS in its last 15 preseason games including a current streak of 7-0 SU and ATS per the OddsShark NFL Database.
Cleveland, on the other hand, was 0-5 SU and ATS in its last five preseason games before this year’s 3-0 run. Win or lose, the Browns have been reliable on the UNDER in the preseason at 10-0-1 in their last 11 games.
Two other teams hoping to avoid a winless preseason are the Buffalo Bills at home against the Detroit Lions and the Atlanta Falcons (-3) hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Atlanta hasn’t placed much of an emphasis on the preseason in recent years, going 9-21 SU and 10-20 ATS in its last 30 preseason games. The usually potent offense of the Falcons has mustered up a pedestrian 14 points per game over the team’s last five preseason contests.
Jacksonville is 6-2 SU and 5-3 ATS in its last eight preseason games against Atlanta.
