Top Game of Gameday 4
Seattle Seahawks (3-0) @ Detroit Lions (2-1)
The 49ers were expected to dominate the NFC West, but it is the Seahawks that lead that division by two wins. They face a tough trip this week though to Dan Campbell's Detroit Lions who got back to winning ways this week at another NFC West team, the Arizona Cardinals.
The Seahawks have one of the most rounded teams in terms of offense and defense and that has served them well so far this season. But the Lions will know that to keep in touch with the Vikings (3-0) in the NFC North, then nothing less than a win will suffice here.
This should be a cracking game but we think that the Lions may do just enough to land the win.
