Week 6: Seahawks Visit Broncos on Thursday Night With Both Teams Coming Off Turnover Problems

Read the full recap →

The Seattle Seahawks visit the Denver Broncos on Thursday night, October 15. Seattle is 3-2 after a 32-29 home loss to San Francisco in which it turned the ball over four times and Sam Darnold threw two interceptions; the Seahawks have 11 giveaways in their past three games. Denver is 3-2 after a 23-17 win at the Chargers in Sean Payton's first game with a larger play-calling role, a game in which the Broncos gained 224 yards and went 1 of 12 on third down but forced three turnovers; Pat Surtain II's ankle has no announced return date.

Seattle's giveaways

Eleven turnovers in three games for a team that had a 12-game winning streak a month ago.

Denver's offense under Payton's hand

Two hundred twenty-four yards and 1 of 12 on third down against the worst team in the league.

Surtain's status

The Broncos' defense is built around him, and he has not practiced since the injury.

Pregame AI Prediction

Winner called correctly Confidence: Low

How the prediction did

Predicted 17-20 (Seahawks vs Broncos), final was 14-17. Right winner at Low confidence, with the 3-point margin called exactly and both teams three points under the projection. Seattle outgained Denver 353 to 168 and Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught 12 passes for 134 yards, but Sam Darnold threw two interceptions among three Seahawks turnovers, and Wil Lutz won it with a 53-yard field goal in overtime. Bo Nix threw for 107 yards. The preview called this the week's lowest projected total, and it was.

Denver at home on a short week with the better defense

Eighty-three points allowed in its past four games against a Seattle offense that keeps giving the ball away.

Seattle's talent is still higher

Darnold, Smith-Njigba and a defense that forced four turnovers in Week 4 could win this comfortably if the ball is protected.

Neither offense is reliable

The projected total of 37 is the week's lowest.

A Low-confidence home lean in a game the model has close to even.
