Seahawks at 49ers: How to watch, odds, expert picks with both teams seeking massive win
The Seattle Seahawks might be playing for their season on Sunday afternoon when they visit the San Francisco 49ers, where they will be a little more than a touchdown underdog.
How to watch Seahawks at 49ers
A win would bring them even with the 49ers in the standings and help the Seahawks hang around in the NFC West for at least another week. A loss drops them to 4-6 and might be a knockout blow for their season, especially given how things have been going in recent weeks. After starting the season with three consecutive wins, the Seahawks lost five of their next six games and struggled to find any sort of consistency along the way. The defense that has finished 25th in the NFL in points allowed the previous two seasons has shown almost no improvement, while quarterback Geno Smith has failed to protect the football, leading the league with 10 interceptions while also fumbling four times.
If there is some good news for Seattle this week, it is the return of star wide receiver DK Metcalf after missing Weeks 8 and 9. The Seahawks scored just 30 points combined in those two games (averaging 15) after averaging 25.7 per game through the first seven games.
The 49ers are still trying to find consistency this season and have finally pieced together back-to-back wins for the first time. Injuries have been a big issue for San Francisco, but superstar running back Christian McCaffrey is back and gives the team a potentially dominant one-two punch along with Jordan Mason. The 49ers get to go against a Seattle defense on Sunday that has one of the league's worst run defenses and allows 139.4 yards per game on the ground.
Along with their disappointing record, the Seahawks are just 2-6-1 against the spread this season. San Francisco is 4-5 against the spread but is 3-2 at home.
