The set-up: Seattle comes in motivated here after its 19-17 home loss to the Colts. With a tough Week 3 matchup in Minnesota next week, the Seahawks will be looking to punch one into the win column here. LA won't be going down without a fight, it comes in equally motivated after a 24-17 setback at Arizona.

The teams: There were many positives for the Seahawks in their Week 1 setback on both sides of the ball. Whether or not starting QB Russell Wilson sees any time today, Seattle's secondary offensive unit looked decent, but not spectacular in Week 1. The defense looked sharp though, with rookie Shaquem Griffin making nine tackles.

LA got decent production from QB's Cardale Jones and Geno Smith in the Week 1 loss to the Cardinals. Smith was 14 of 23 for 217 yards, one touchdown and one interception. With starting QB Philip Rivers expected to see little to no time this week again, LA's offense looks poised to struggle again against the Hawks' deep defensive unit.

The pick: With New Orleans coming to town in Week 3, I think LA gets caught looking ahead. Play on the Seahawks.
