The Seattle Seahawks will look to end their three-game losing streak when they visit the Atlanta Falcons.

Seattle started the season promisingly, winning its first three games, but has not won since beating New England in Week 3.

The host Falcons lost two of their first three games and then rebounded by winning three games in a row. They are tied for first place in the NFC South with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Both teams have shown they can open up their offense and light up the scoreboard. This may be a higher scoring, busy passing game led by Geno Smith and Kirk Cousins.

The Seahawks will try to avoid a 3-4 start for the first time in 16 years. We offer the odds for the match, as well as our Seahawks vs. Falcons predictions and best bets for NFL Week 7.

No Seahawks team that started with a 3-4 record has ever won more than nine games in Champs or Chumps. Mike Macdonald needs to lead his team to a road win after suffering another home loss to the San Francisco 49ers last week.

Seattle's defense was problematic after a good performance in the first three games, beating the teams it was supposed to beat.

Injuries will make the secondary's challenge even greater against Cousins ​​and his array of playmakers. Cornerbacks Riq Woolen and Tre Brown are out with ankle injuries. Safety will also be thin as Rayshawn Jenkins (hand) was placed on injured reserve this week. Jerick Reed II is out with an ankle injury.

The Falcons now appear to be one of the better teams in the NFC, and they are well positioned on offense. After starting the season slowly and showing signs of rust following last season's Achilles tendon injury, Cousins ​​has rediscovered his best form.

The Falcons' new QB has an impressive group of potent offensive partners to work with, including WRs Drake London and Darnell Mooney, TE Kyle Pitts, and RBs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, who provide great support.

Atlanta has scored over 36 points in each of the last two games. Putting pressure on opposing passers was a problem as the Falcons recorded an NFL-low five sacks. Seattle will have time to throw, and Cousins ​​may be preparing for a shootout with Smith.

Robison and Allegier form an impressive RB duo. The former scored a career-best two touchdowns last week, while the latter rushed for 105 yards and a touchdown.

London ranks third in the NFL with 38 receptions. He has caught a TD pass in four of his last five games. Pitts is averaging 14.6 yards per reception and Mooney has three touchdown catches.

On defense, AJ Terrill and Clark Phillips intercepted their first passes of the season last week. Nate Landman forced two fumbles. He has forced a fumble in two of his last three games.

Why Seattle could win as an underdog

Best odds: +130 at DraftKings Sportsbook

Smith is one of the busiest passers in the game and he works with a trio of WRs that challenge any defense. He leads the NFL with 1,778 passing yards and 173 completions. Smith's completion percentage is 68.9 and he has passed for over 280 yards in the last five games.

DK Metcalf is aiming for his third straight road game with over 100 receiving yards. In their last seven road games, Seattle's top WRs have had seven touchdown receptions.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught more than eight passes in his last two away games. Longtime Seahawks starter Tyler Lockett remains a key part of the passing game and caught his first touchdown of the season last week.

Kenneth Walker III is an integral part of the offense. He went for his fifth touchdown of the season last week, and if the Seahawks can get him going, they can display optimal offensive balance. Seattle's offense ranks fourth in the NFL and will look to keep up with Atlanta's fifth-place unit.

To further bolster their frontline defense, the Seahawks acquired defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris from the Jaguars this week. The return of 2024 first-round draft pick Byron Murphy II may also help. He missed the last three games due to a hamstring injury.
