Seattle's playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after blewing an opportunity to beat the Vikings at home on Sunday. Geno Smith threw for 314 yards, but he also had two more interceptions bringing his total to 15 this season along with 45 sacks. Smith has his worst passer rating since becoming Seattle's starting quarterback and he is dealing with a knee injury. Sam Howell would replace him if Smith can't go, and Howell had a disastrous outing in relief of Smith against Green Bay in Week 15. He completed only four of 14 for 24 yards and an interception. Chicago has nothing left to play for other than to spoil other teams' playoff possibilities, and Seattle is 3-8 ATS its past 11 games against the NFC North. The Seahawks have averaged only 19.9 points their past eight games. Caleb Williams threw for 334 yards and two TDs with no picks for the Bears against Detroit, and Chicago appears to have the edge at the QB position in this matchup. Take the Bears.
