Seattle Seahawks Set to Face New York Giants in Week 5 NFL Clash

The Seattle Seahawks are gearing up to host the New York Giants at Lumen Field on Sunday for their Week 5 NFL matchup. The pregame highlight will feature the raising of the 12th Man Flag by Pro Football Hall of Famer and Seahawks legend Walter Jones. This marks the fifth occasion that Jones, revered for his illustrious tenure with the team, takes on the honor, having previously raised the flag in 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2017.

Seattle enters the game with a record of 3-1, aiming to bounce back from a recent defeat. Their unbeaten streak was ended last week with a 42-29 loss at the hands of the Detroit Lions. The Giants, meanwhile, are looking to improve their 1-3 record after a narrow 20-15 loss to the New Orleans Saints.

The Seahawks will be facing a Giants team dealing with notable absences. New York’s rookie wide receiver, a key component of their offense, will not be participating due to injury. This adds to the challenges for Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, who currently holds a 62.3% completion rate for the season.

Despite some issues, the Seahawks stand as the favorites to win this weekend. According to the latest odds from SportsLine consensus, they are 7-point favorites, and the expected total points scored is set at 42.5. Seattle has dominated their recent matchups against the Giants, securing victory in six of their last seven meetings.

Kickoff for this anticipated encounter is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. Eastern Time. Fans can catch the live broadcast on CBS or subscribe to streaming services offering additional NFL coverage, including replays and exclusive content.
