NFL Tuesday Best Bets: Rams, Seahawks, Washington, Eagles

• The Seattle Seahawks have -110 odds to cover 2.5 points in the first quarter.
• There are -170 odds for Over 19.5 points in the first half between Washington Football Team and the Philadelphia Eagles.

LOS ANGELES – Week 15 of the NFL season is coming to an end with two Tuesday Night Football games after COVID-19 postponed them. There will be an NFC West matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks as well as an NFC East matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Football Team.

While betting on the normal game lines is an option, looking at game props that legal betting sites offer range much further from total points in a half or even the spread for a quarter.

Los Angeles Rams Vs. Seattle Seahawks

Even though the Rams are 2.5-point favorites in the first quarter, the Seahawks could match them with ease. The Rams have not been a high-scoring first-quarter team all season as they are averaging just 3.8 points per first quarter this season. They are also putting up 3.3 in their last three games and failed to score their last time out.

As for the Seahawks, they are putting up 4.5 points per first quarter and a solid 8 points in their last three games. They are also coming off of a 10-point first-quarter outing in Week 14.

Pick: Seahawks +2.5 1Q

The Rams are the main reason this game was postponed due to them missing tons of players on the COVID list. That said, they could be scrambling for any offense that they can get.

Although the Rams have been one of the higher scoring offenses in the league with 28.2 points per game, the Seahawks defense has held their own this season. Seattle is allowing just 20.2 points per game to opponents.

They have not allowed any team to go Over 26.5 points since Week 5 which includes teams such as the Green Bay Packers, Arizona Cardinals, and even the Rams in their first meeting.

The Seahawks haven’t been hit hard by COVID-19 and will have a full-strength defense backing them up. That said, the underdog NFL odds on the Rams Under could be profitable.

Pick: Rams Under 26.5 +105

Philadelphia Eagles Vs. Washington Football Team

Both teams combined are averaging over 19 points as the Eagles are putting up 12 points per first half while WFT is averaging 10.2 points. In each of their last three games, they are also averaging Over 19 with the Eagles averaging 17 points and Washington putting up 5.3 points.

Both teams are missing key pieces on defense which could allow the offenses to get on a role early on in the game.

Pick: Over 19 1H Points -165
