Detroit Lions‘ quarterback Jared Goff gets a taste of his old nemesis, the Seattle Seahawks this Monday night. Both teams are coming off hard-fought wins, but only Seattle has the honor of defending an undefeated record.
Seattle reached 3-0 by means of taking down the Denver Broncos, New England Patriots, and Tua-less Miami Dolphins. It’s fair to say that they’ve yet to be serious tested. Detroit will be the team that determines whether or not these Seahawks are the real deal.

Lorenzo Reyes: Lions 23, Seahawks 17
Detroit seems to have settled a bit, though its offensive punch isn’t quite as potent as we saw from last year. In particular, tight end Sam LaPorta, who suffered an ankle sprain against the Cardinals, has gotten off to a slow start. Seattle, however, is a very good defensive team, though the Seahawks can be exploited on the ground. I expect Detroit to lean on its offensive line to get David Montgomery and Jammer Gibbs going early, opening up the play-action pass.
Tyler Dragon: Lions 21, Seahawks 20
First-year head coach Mike Macdonald is an early NFL Coach of the Year candidate. The Seahawks are the first team since the 1979 Steelers to start 3-0 and allow fewer than 150 passing yards in each of their first three games in a season, per NFL Research. But the Lions are going to be Seattle’s toughest test yet.
Richard Morin: Lions 28, Seahawks 21
Seattle’s 3-0 record is a bit of a smokescreen. Detroit shows up in primetime and is still a bona fide Super Bowl contender.
Jordan Mendoza: Lions 23, Seahawks 20
How legit is Seattle’s 3-0 record? It hasn’t come against really tough opponents. Detroit at home during primetime is a tough task for anyone, and the Lions crowd makes a difference in a close victory.
