When the Cowboys (8-3) host the Seahawks (6-5) to open NFL Week 13 on "Thursday Night Football" (8:15 p.m. ET, Amazon Prime Video), it will be a big matchup of two teams currently holding NFC wild-card spots.
Dallas, the current No. 5 seed, will be looking to stay hot before hosting Philadelphia in a massive NFC East game in Week 14. Meanwhile, Seattle, the current No. 6 seed, is trying to pick up the pieces after two consecutive division losses to the Rams and Niners.
Will the Cowboys keep rolling at home, or will the Seahawks rally and end their poorly timed late-season skid? Here's a betting breakdown and prediction for the latest edition of TNF:
Seahawks vs. Cowboys odds, spread, over/under
(All odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook)
Spread: Seahawks +9 (-110) | Cowboys -9 (-110)
Over/Under: OVER 47.5 (-110) | UNDER 47.5 (-110)
Moneyline: Seahawks +345 | Ravens -455
Leading up to this game, the Cowboys have hovered between eight-point and double-digit favorites, so it's not a surprise that the line has settled right in between. The Cowboys are 8-3 and have covered in five of the past six games. They have won all six home games and covered in all of them this season.

Should you bet the Cowboys against the spread vs. Seahawks?
The Cowboys are rolling; the Seahawks are reeling. Nothing has to give here. Both teams are well rested from playing last Thursday when the Cowboys ripped the Commanders and the Seahawks looked lost against the 49ers.
Dallas has plenty of motivation to get closer to Philadelphia, while Seattle is starting to fade further away from San Francisco. The Seahawks are struggling against the run and can give up plenty to a red-hot Dak Prescott. Geno Smith facing a Cowboys defense on the road feels like another offensive clunker.
Our Pick: Cowboys -9 (-110)
Should you bet the Seahawks-Cowboys OVER?
The Cowboys will have most of the scoring burden here to get OVER this number. Between Prescott, their running game, big-play defense, and strong special teams, the Cowboys once again have many avenues to score and keep moving the ball well all night. A combination of four touchdowns and two field goals seems reasonable, with the Seahawks posting a couple of garbage-time scores.
Our Pick: OVER 47.5 (-110)
Final score prediction: Cowboys 34, Seahawks 14
