49ers vs. Seahawks Odds
49ers vs. Seahawks Preview
The Niners beat the Eagles, 23-19, but lost George Kittle, arguably the best tight end in the league. Many are already suggesting that this unit has nothing to hope for against the Seahawks next weekend.
However, the 49ers beat the team with the best defense in the league since the trade deadline, using their own weapon. Defensive coordinator Robert Saleh stiffed Hurts, Barkley and the boys, and hopes to do the same with Darnold.
As for the Seahawks, they have one of the most balanced teams in the NFL. An interesting thing is that their previous event was against the 49ers, 13-3, in San Francisco, where they secured a top seed in the conference in a direct matchup.
Seattle has the league’s top defense, allowing 17.2 points per game, and the third-best offense, scoring 28.4 points per game. That explains a lot why Darnold and the guys had 14 wins.
49ers vs. Seahawks Head to Head
These NFC West divisional rivals have met twice this year, and each side has a win on the road, 17-13 for the Niners in Seattle and 13-3 for the Seahawks in the Bay Area.
49ers vs. Seahawks Predictions
Injuries will play a key role here, and in this case, the Seahawks have a massive edge over the Niners, who simply can’t get over Seattle’s defense without Kittle.
