Seahawks vs 49ers Prediction
The current betting odds have the 49ers listed as a 6.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 49ers have looked good in their games this season with their 5-4 record overall which has them in 2nd place of the NFC West and fighting for the lead of the division with the Arizona Cardinals. They haven't looked great this season, but they have been playing better lately and are starting to gain some momentum now, coming off a win against the Bucs in their last one too. Meanwhile, the Seahawks haven't looked good in their games this season with their 4-5 record overall which has them at the bottom of the NFC West at the moment. This is still a tight division so they aren't out of the race yet, but this was a team that started the season 3-0 and has completely collapsed to the bottom of the division. Their defense has been giving up a ton of points all season and their offense has been really up and down in their games too. It doesn't help that they are dealing with a ton of injuries and that has been hurting this team all year. The 49ers have also dealt with injuries this season, but they are finally getting healthier now, even with Christian McCaffrey returning last week, so they are going to be looking to really break out now and try to take the division. This game is a tale of 2 teams headed in different directions right now. The best way to place a bet here is on the 49ers to cover the spread in this game.
Seahawks 49ers Prediction: Our NFL Pick for Sunday, November 17, 2024 (4:05 pm ET start time) is 49ers 30 Seahawks 17.
