The Seattle Seahawks (2-2) are on a two-game winning run after losing their first two games of the season and are going to face one of the hottest teams in the league, Cincinnati Bengals (4-0), at the Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday.
Although they did not have one of their better games, the Seahawks were able to escape with a 13-10 victory against the winless Detroit Lions in Week 4 at the CenturyLink Field, via SB Nation.
Russell Wilson was accurate in the match, going 20-of-26 for 287 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions, but he was sacked six times. Still Seattle managed to pull off the win particularly with the help of their defense.
The Bengals are surprising many fans this season, winning their first four games. The last one was a scintillating 36-21 win over the Kansas City Chiefs at home last Sunday, as per Fansided.
Andy Dalton passed 17-of-24 for 321 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions, and no sacks for high QBR of 95.3 and rating of 127.1. The 27-year-old signal caller will be looking to continue his hot start against the vaunted Seattle defense.
The key, however, would be Cincinnati's defense as they will try to shut down the struggling Wilson.
Prediction: Bengals win, 24-14.
