Seahawks vs. Broncos preview: Three key matchups for Week 1 showdown

The Seattle Seahawks (+6.5)

’ Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos (-6.5) will be a great early season measuring stick game for a lot of their key players and position groups, and not just the storyline of Russell Wilson’s return to Seattle.

At the moment, DraftKings Sportsbook has the Seahawks as 6.5-point underdogs, which is a sizeable point spread given the game is at home. There’s expected to be a sizeable disparity in quarterback play, but there are other things at play that could determine the outcome of this one.

The biggest matchup this game will feature is second year corner Patrick Surtain ll against DK Metcalf.
