00:00Seahawks host Minnesota they do so as a slight home dog Gino exited the game

00:07against Green Bay on Sunday night looks like he'll be playing in this one though

00:11against the Vikings here who control their own destiny for the number one

00:17seed which is incredible to say Donnie like anything in Seattle Minnesota it's

00:21supposed to rain so one of the few spots where we're looking at maybe weather

00:24will have an impact not really extremely cold not really extremely windy but as

00:27you know in Seattle you get the rain he said well how heavy is gonna rain we

00:30learned a pretty good lesson on San Francisco in LA hey the rain will get

00:33out of there early absolutely wrecked the entire game plan having said that

00:36Aaron Jones on the ground anytime touch something makes a lot of sense to me

00:40because they will move the football but I do think is that solo guy if there's a

00:44little bit of rainy conditions he's slippery enough to get in the end zone

00:46that's the way I would look at this game Joe I actually like Seattle here this

00:50is a spot where I'm looking to take the three and a half with Seattle I

00:53understand that Minnesota has one seven straight but I think the Seahawks now

00:57get back to running the football I don't think they can get into a shootout

01:00that was clearly obvious with Green Bay last week they gave up a ton of yards to

01:04the rushing attack and Josh Jacobs they dictated the tempo Josh Jacobs touched

01:08the football the first drive basically eight times and it was game on after

01:12that so you want to shut down Aaron Jones I think they can do that to some

01:16capacity and force the game back on to Darnold and maybe we see this game play

01:20out lower scoring and somehow some way because they are at home wet conditions

01:25Seattle pulls it out yeah I think the Vikings are a little bit of a different

01:28team when you talk about putting them on the road people might say whoa whoa whoa

01:31five and one out right cool not very close wins though Green Bay by two lost

01:36to the Rams by double digits actually which was only one of two losses but it

01:41gives you an idea the Titans was only by ten the Jaguars was a disgusting display

01:46the Bears was just by three to your point Joe so I look at Minnesota where

01:51for Detroit falling to the five it's just like how did this happen right for

01:58Minnesota being the five is worrisome your opening round matchup at the moment

02:04will project actually to be LA you're already gone there you already played

02:08there you already lost there right so you kind of get an idea that the Vikings

02:13will be dogs in that game like that's the difference would you guys agree with

02:16that the Rams would not a huge favorite but the Rams would be favored over

02:19Minnesota in LA by three I think they would be yeah yeah by three maybe so the

02:25difference for Minnesota right is you get a bye and the playoffs run through

02:30your your stadium or you're a round one dog yeah like Detroit would still

02:36actually I think be favored but time will certainly tell
