Home field is worth about a field goal, and that's exactly what they're dealing, so Seattle is priced as no better than the Bears on a neutral field. Three is the most common margin in this sport, and holding the full three at standard -110 means the push is on my side of the ledger. I'll own the Bears plus the key number.

With the vig removed, Novig prices the Bears +3 at a fair 50%. I have it nearer 52, because three is the most common margin in this sport and a push protects the position there. Two points is a thin gap and my confidence is moderate; a move to +2.5 would erase it.

The matchup I keep coming back to is the Bears' offensive line against Seattle's front in that building at night, where crowd noise turns third down into a test of silent counts and edge protection. If Chicago can't hold the edge, the drives stall and the field flips. Seattle -3 at -110 is the market pricing home field and not much more, and I think the trenches give the Seahawks more than a field goal of edge.

Lou and the Quant both want the Bears getting three, and on a Bears desk that is about as contrarian as a team scarf. Seattle at home under the Monday night lights at a flat -110 on the key number is the side nobody here wants to be seen holding. Unloved home favourite, fair price, fine by me.
