Seahawks vs Washington
Monday marks the first and only regular season meeting between these two clubs in 2021. The last time these two clubs faced each other was December 20, 2020. The Seahawks won that game, which took place at FedEx Field, by a score of 20-15. Washington leads the all-time series between the teams with a 12-9 record, but Seattle has won three of the last four meetings, including the 2013 NFC Wild Card game.

Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke had his best performance of the year during Week 11. He went 16-for-22 in passing and tossed three touchdowns to go with no interceptions. His quarterback rating in the win of the Panthers was a season high 141.3 Heinicke had a 110.4 QB rating in the win over Tampa. he did not throw an interception in that game either.
Russell Wilson came back from finger surgery in Week 10 to help the struggling Seahawks. The team has lost both games since Wilson’s return to action. He has zero TD throws and two interceptions since he rejoined the team after last playing on October 7 in a loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Wilson’s completion percentage in his past two games was under 55 percent.

Wilson has thrown for a total of 368 yards in the past two games, while Washington’s defense has done well against the pass in its past three games, limiting their opponents to under 200 yards per game in each of those outings.
The Seahawks were shut out against the Packers in Week 10 (17-0) and scored 13 points against the Cardinals.
MNF Best Bets
Pick Washington to win. Washington has all the momentum heading into this game. They are coming off wins in two games where they were the underdogs and their quarterback just put together his best back-to-back games of the 2021 NFL season.
Pick Washington to cover the spread. I think this game will be close and I think Seattle has a better performance against Washington than the team did in Week 10 and Week 11, but I think Washington manages to get the win here and I think the team covers the spread in doing so.
