Kendall Capps of ClutchPoint's has the Seahawks winning on the road against the Lions. "With St. Brown potentially hobbled, and Swift not likely to play, the Lions won't break 23 points. Meanwhile, the Seahawks are facing a reeling defense. They have the better weapons but get overlooked by the media because Smith is their QB. I like the Seahawks to pull off the upset and improve to 2-2."
CBS Sports NFL's Pete Prisco is taking the Lions to win handily over the Sehawks with a final score of 33-20. "The Seahawks defense is bad, while the Lions have been really good on offense. That will show up in this one as Detroit gets back in the win column."
Mike Florio of NBC Sports "Pro Football Talk" predicts a close game in Detroit and goes with the home team winning over 23-20 the Sehawks. "The Seahawks simply don't have the horses to avoid losing their third in a row."

NFL's Marcus Grant is predicting quarterback Geno Smith to shine in this week's matchup against the Lions. "This year's Seahawks offense is more of an aerial attack than in past years, which is a plot twist that no one saw coming.That's enough to give us hope for Week 4. Pete Carroll said his offense would be more up-tempo heading into Week 3 and his team made good on that promise. Smith threw the ball a career-high 44 times for 325 yards and a pair of touchdowns."
Karley Sibert of Fansided picked the Seahawks to beat the Lions in a big 28-14 win in Week 4. "The Lions look to be slowly improving as a team but it might not be enough to beat the Seahawks"
Matt Verderame of Fansided has the Lions to win heavily over the Seahawks 38-23. "The Lions should win this game. Much more explosive offensively, and the defensive front should get pressure on Geno Smith."
