The time in New York and the time in California are the same. The official time is Matt Rivers time. Rivers, Senior Handicapper at OffshoreInsiders.com has an NFL week 8 free pick and it’s to go with Dallas -9.5 against Seattle at BetUs Sportsbook  
 
I was pretty high on these Seahawks before the season began as I believed last season’s failures were just a one time thing but right now I am starting to believe that I was dead wrong. Even when healthy and with Matt Hasselbeck the Seahawks are rapidly becoming a joke. Every now and then they will look pretty good as they did against the Jaguars a few weeks back in the shutout burial but overall they are not a very good football team right now.
 
For one thing Jim Mora is a far less than average coach. We saw that with the Falcons and he is proving this once again here with Seattle. Also, perenially the ‘Hawks always have trouble on the road and playing in Jerry Jones’ new playground is not exactly advantageous to the visitors, just ask Matt Ryan and the Falcons who looked silly last week.
 
You also have to factor in how Mora’s crew is far from healthy and with Lofa Tatupu out along with numerous others the boys from Big D are going to take advantage and have their way.
 
Also Hasselbeck and the offense was beyond terrible in that debacle of a game against Kurt Warner and the Cardinals in the Great Northwest and come in here with absolutely no momentum at all. TJ Houshmandzadeh has not been all that and there is some friction between he and his new teammates.
 
Dallas meanwhile seemingly has turned things around as they have been winning some games of late and have developed a great wide receiver in Miles Austin. Tony Romo to Austin looks like Troy Aikman to Michael Irvin and that will certainly help out a top five, at worst, running game led by Marion Barber and Felix Jones.
 
It’s a tough tough spot for a banged up and pretty poor Seattle team to be able to compete in. Dallas may not be a blowout team but on this day I believe they will be.
