Two teams with almost identical records clash heads on New Year’s Day in Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 at the Lumen Field as the regular season heads towards a dramatic finale.

Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 Preview Games and History

Teams don’t come much more evenly matched than in this Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 game, and we’re expecting a very close game to be played out here. These sides do tend to keep things close in most seasons, even if Seattle did absolutely trample the Jets last time around.

The overall series currently sits at 12-8 in the Seahawks’ favor. They also lead the points scored in the series with 391 to the Jets’ 350. This lead is mainly thanks to a brilliant run when the series first began in 1977, where they had seven wins on the trot.

Things dramatically swung back the Jets’ way beginning in the mid-1980s, where they won 8 games out of 9 to pull into a draw on the series. That moment sharing top only lasted for that one game, though, and in the four games since, the Seahawks have pulled into another lead as they build up another winning streak.

Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 Odds and Statistics

These two teams have never met in the postseason and have, in fact, only locked horns 6 times since the turn of the century. A couple of scores have left a dent in the ego of Jets fans recently, though, with the last matchup in 2020 being a completely one-sided affair, the Seahawks taking home a 40-3 victory.

New York will be hoping to stop Seattle from building up another huge winning streak during the Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 as they try and maintain an even balance in the series record.

Jets vs. Seahawks 01/01/23 NFL Betting Tips: The Season So Far

Jets

The Jets have had a hit-and-miss season, currently sitting with a 7-8 record. Zonovan Knight at running back has been one of the biggest overperformers in the whole league this season. He can consider luck himself lucky to have got a foot in the door – only a number of injuries in the right (or wrong) positions gave him a chance to get some minutes in – but he hasn’t looked back since.

Going from an undrafted rookie to a star performer in a team chasing a positive record is definitely one of the most impressive stories of the season. We can’t just attribute the Jets’ strengths to him though, however nice an addition he’s turned out to be.

The conundrum at quarterback can be both a source of hope and disappointment, with most sides having settled on a consistent starter, but the Jets are seemingly forever stuck between Zach Wilson and Robert Saleh, which arguably keeps the opposition guessing but also hinders the side’s ability to find a good rhythm.

Their recent poor form has turned the playoffs from a probable outcome to an unlikely hope but don’t write them off yet.

Seahawks

After filling fans with hope in the midseason with a hot streak of form, the side has now hit what’s probably their worst form of the season. The defense has shown that it can mix with the best of the league when it’s on its A-game but, unfortunately, looks porous to most game weeks.

Tyler Lockett’s finger injury doesn’t help either and now that Seattle has fallen out of the playoff spots, there’s a worry that they won’t be able to fight their way back in.

Even if they don’t make it to the postseason though, this is a young team that will likely only get better with time and the Seahawks can remain proud of their overall performance this year with a high number of rookies impressing in the squad.
