Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Courtland Sutton (Broncos) vs Devon Witherspoon (Seahawks) - winner: Devon Witherspoon, holding him to 44 yds on just 38% open, 0.8 INT a game, - locked up on the outside.
  • Cooper Kupp (Seahawks) vs Pat Surtain II (Broncos) - winner: Pat Surtain II, holding him to 37 yds on just 38% open, 0.6 INT a game, - erased from the game plan.
  • J.K. Dobbins (Broncos) vs Tyrice Knight (Seahawks) - winner: J.K. Dobbins, 5.0 yds a carry - moves the chains on the ground.
In the Trenches
  • The Seahawks get stonewalled often up front, winning only 50% of reps (4.6 sacks a game), led by Uchenna Nwosu (1.1 sacks, 7.2 pressures a game).
  • Don't expect much heat from the Broncos — a 51% win rate yields only 4.5 sacks and 19.0 pressures a game, led by Nik Bonitto (2.2 sacks, 4.5 pressures a game).
Through the Air
  • Look for Jaxon Smith-Njigba to eat: 7.0 catches and 59 yds a game for the Seahawks.
  • Jaylen Waddle is the go-to for the Broncos, separating on 59% of routes for 50 yds a game.
  • In coverage, Devon Witherspoon (Seahawks) travels and erases — only 31% separation allowed, adding 0.7 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • The Seahawks lean on Zach Charbonnet, 17 carries for 70 yds a game at 4.1 a carry, doing his damage off right tackle.
  • On the ground, the Broncos ride J.K. Dobbins: 12 carries, 58 yds a game (5.0 a carry), finding room off the right edge and controlling the clock.
