Chiefs vs. Seahawks picks, best bets 

  • Seahawks -2.5 (-110)
  • Cooper Kupp Over 24.5 receiving yards (-113)

Seahawks -2.5 (-110)

"Seattle got extra rest following its two-game skid vs. San Francisco and Denver," SportsLine expert Larry Hartstein said. "The Seahawks, who dominated the Broncos in the box score, should get a boost from the expected return of Zach Charbonnet. That should ease the pressure on Sam Darnold. Kansas City enters 5-0 but has played an easy schedule." Bet on Chiefs vs. Seahawks at bet365 with bonus code CBSBET365 and get $200 in bonus bets after betting $10:

Cooper Kupp Over 24.5 receiving yards (-113)

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has easily been Seattle's top target in the passing game, but Cooper Kupp has been the second option with 16 receptions for 179 yards. Kupp is averaging more than 11 yards per catch and is coming off his best game of the season, hauling in five receptions for 50 yards. This is expected to be a close game, giving Kupp plenty of opportunities. SportsLine's model has Kupp finishing with 33 receiving yards in its latest simulations. Use the BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS to get up to $1,500 in bonus bets when wagering on Sunday Night Football:
