The push for the playoffs continues Sunday with a visit to the west coast to take on the struggling Seattle Seahawks for the first time in 15 years.

The 5-point favored Patriots are now tied with Miami for second place in the AFC East, trailing the New York Jets by one game in the division and Indianapolis and Baltimore by a game each in the race for the AFC's wild card spots.

The defensive unit has struggled the past few weeks, as New England has given up an average of 31.7 points in the last three games, losing two of them.

Seattle has already lost five in a row for the first time since 2000, and it hasn't lost six straight since 1994. They are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six home games. NFL odds? We've got 'em!
