Last February’s Super Bowl matchup was nearly one between Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks and Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos. Although only one of them made the big game (and won it), we get to see what that matchup could have been to kick off the Week 6 slate. While it’s not exactly what we may have seen back then, it’s still an awesome matchup to start a new week, so let’s make the most of it with our NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football.

🔥 NFL Week 6 Thursday Night Football Best Bets, Expert Picks & Predictions for Seahawks vs. Broncos, 10/15

Not only did we nearly have Seahawks vs. Broncos in last year’s Super Bowl, but we also saw both these teams in back-and-forth divisional rivalries this past Sunday. Denver came out on top over the Los Angeles Chargers (cashing one of our NFL expert picks in the process), while Seattle came up short against the San Francisco 49ers.

It’s always a quick turnaround when it comes to NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football, and despite the loss and being on the road, we still see the Seahawks as favorites on TNF. It’s what we expected, as Denver hasn’t looked like a team destined for back-to-back AFC Championship Games thus far. After all, beating LA isn’t saying much these days.

That said, Bo Nix and company did win their previous primetime game against the other LA team, and another NFC West team - the Los Angeles Rams. We’ve already got our best overall Seahawks vs. Broncos prediction for you, so let’s add to our NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football below!

 

 

 

🏉 Seahawks vs. Broncos Best Bet for NFL Week 6 TNF: Bo Nix to Throw an INT (-135 at Fanatics)

We don’t expect this game to turn into a shootout, but when Jaxon Smith-Njigba is involved, it’s certainly a possibility. Regardless, with Denver expected to be trailing in this game, that means more passing for Bo Nix, and therefore, more opportunities for picks. Even without that being the case, this would make the cut for our NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football.

For starters, their ground game isn’t exactly elite. The JK Dobbins touchdown we saw in Week 5 was his first since last season’s Week 5, which speaks for itself. Now that they have Jaylen Waddle on the outside, that can lead to more forced throws, and we could see that even more with head coach Sean Payton back to calling the plays.

He wants to be back in the driver’s seat to help his team cash some NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football, and after Denver’s offensive output the first few weeks, it makes sense. We also saw Nix throw a pick in each of the first three weeks of the season, so can Payton clean things up entirely?

When facing this Seattle defense, that’s difficult to imagine. They just picked off one of the top MVP candidates right now - Brock Purdy - and it just takes one. Rather than needing to rack up yards or needing a guy to find the endzone, just a deflection or lucky bounce can get the job done for us, adding to our NFL best bets for Thursday Night Football with Bo Nix to throw an INT (-135 at Fanatics).
