The Seattle Seahawks (2-9 SU, 4-6-1 ATS, 5-5-1 O/U) extended their losing streak to four games with its 20-17 home loss to Washington on Sunday. The Dallas Cowboys (7-4 SU, 5-6 ATS, 7-4 O/U) have won two straight games, covering the spread fro BetUS NFL sports betting backers in the BetUS Sportsbook each time.
Both teams will bee looking to win on Thanksgiving when they meet at Texas Stadium.
The Seahawks were a 3-point underdog last week, making their outcome a push as veteran quarterback Matt Hasselbeck completed just 12 of 24 passes for 103 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
“I am trusted with the ball, and I am trusted in those situations,” Hasselbeck said. “I am definitely kicking myself right now.”
Running back Maurice Morris added 103 rushing yards on 14 carries with a touchdown reception.
“I’m not playing up to the level that I am capable of,” Hasselbeck added. “I’ve got to fix it quick.”
The Seahawks couldn’t stop Redskins running back Clinton Portis, allowing him to rush for 143 yards on 29 carries.
The Cowboys laid a 35-22 beating on the San Francisco 49ers as a 9.5-point home favorite last week as quarterback Tony Romo passed for 341 yards with three touchdowns for Dallas. Enigmatic wide receiver Terrell Owens caught seven passes for 213 yards and a touchdown in the win.
“They unleashed me today,” Owens said, smiling.
“I’ve been telling you guys all along, it’s not anything wrong with me,” Owens added “Performance-wise, I can play. … It showed.”
