Check out which side the local and national media are predicting to win when the Seattle Seahawks match up against the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday at CenturyLink Field.
Todd Archer, **ESPN.com**: Seahawks 23, Cowboys 16
Archer: Seattle opened the season with back-to-back road games and will hope friendly confines serve it well. The Cowboys are 12-5 on the road with Dak Prescott but have scored more than 20 points in just one of their past five away games, including just eight in the season opener at Carolina. A fast start is a must, but so is consistent offensive success. That has been an issue lately.
Brady Henderson, **ESPN.com**: Seahawks 21, Cowboys 17
Henderson: As flawed as the Seahawks have looked at times during their 0-2 start, both losses have been on the road and amid some challenging circumstances, including altitude in Denver and the absence of five starters Monday night in Chicago. They'll have middle linebackerBobby Wagner back Sunday at CenturyLink Field, where they've won 14 of their past 15 home openers, including an NFL-best nine straight.
Elliot Harrison, **NFL.com**: Seahawks 17, Cowboys 14
Harrison: With Seattle capable of putting up more points, especially at home, quieting the crowd and lengthening drives is of more (importance) for Dallas.
Pete Prisco, **CBSSports.com**: Seahawks 21, Cowboys 17
Prisco: The Seahawks will be playing their home opener, which will bring some extra juice to an already lively building. The problem is that they aren't the same team. Dallas looked impressive in beating the Giants, but this will be different. The Seahawks will rally in front of the home folks to find a way to win this one.
Michael David-Smith, **ProFootballTalk.com**: Seahawks 27, Cowboys 23
MDS: I think the Seahawks will prove to be a better team than they've shown so far this season. They'll bounce back from an ugly Monday night performance and win at home.
Mike Florio, **ProFootballTalk.com**: Seahawks 23, Cowboys 20
Florio: It's already must-win time for the Seahawks, who finally get a chance to play at home.
