NWSB Fantasy Football Insider and part time Seahawks blogger Dave B. is back and better than ever with his Week 5 NFL fantasy football forecast for the Seattle Seahawks vs. Carolina Panthers. Dave says start the defense. The Seattle D isn’t quite as scary when they play on the road. Still, this unit is good enough to give Cam Newton and company fits. Expect Bruce Irvin, Bobby Wagner, K.J. Wright, Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor to give him fits.
Free NFL Betting Odds & Picks for the Seattle Seahawks vs. Carolina Panthers week 5 matchup. The Seahawks are a 3 point road underdog. The over/under is 43 1/2. Dave says Seattle has had some problems of late, but he is still picking them +3. Look for this to be a low scoring running game for both sides, as neither Cam Newton or Russell Wilson has got the goods to go down the field without fear of being picked off.
