This game will be played at Lumen Field at 4:05 PM ET on Sunday, January 1, 2023.
Why Bet the Jets:
✅ Mike White is set to return at quarterback for the Jets in this game. That will really help the Jets offensively in this huge game.
✅ Seattle’s home field advantage is overvalued at this point in time. They are 3-4 at home coming into this contest, while the Jets have a 4-3 road record.
✅ Seattle is tied for the fourth worst record against the spread this year. They are 6-9 against the spread, failing to cover the number in 60% of their contests on the year. They will continue to struggle against the number this week.

New York Jets
The New York Jets have hit the wall at the wrong time this season, losing four straight games and dropping to 7-8 on the season. They sit in last place in the AFC East, but their playoff hopes are not done just yet. They need to win the remaining two games of their season and get some help from elsewhere in the AFC to make the postseason, and they hope the return of Mike White will help them this week against the Seahawks.
White has been responsible for some of the best offensive performances of the year for the Jets. New York is averaging over 100 yards per game more with White at quarterback than with Zach Wilson under center. If White can reclaim the form he enjoyed before getting injured, the Jets could get back to .500 with a win this weekend.
Seattle Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks are enduring a losing streak of their own, dropping three straight at the worst possible time. They are sitting in eighth place in the NFC playoff standings, and need to get some wins in a hurry to have a chance at the postseason. Here, the Seahawks host the Jets in a game that could eliminate the loser.
This week, the Seahawks need Geno Smith to play like the quarterback that was in the MVP discussion early in the season. Smith and the Seahawks offense have really fallen off of late, averaging just 11.5 points per game over their last two games. A better offensive showing is required to keep the Seahawks alive going into Week 18.
