LT Duane Brown needs knee surgery, relatively minor but will miss next week vs SF and perhaps playoffs. #Seahawks are up against it. Carroll: "We are going to figure out a way." pic.twitter.com/kAsLUncuAt

Wow , we need to take advantage of this and show no mercy

We play down to our opponents level, so I am not really going to get that excited tbh

This especially with the way we've been playing. We should kill this team but Seattle is in our head, I expect he refs to get in it and Wilson to pull off some magical bs.

Good point. So if GB and NO are 13-3 then they both have the tiebreaker over a 13-3 Seattle team? I know NO beat them but are you sure GB would have the tiebreaker over Seattle?

Seattle could still mathematically get the #1 seed right? If they win, New Orleans loses and Green Bay goes 1-1 doesn't Seattle win that three way tiebreaker?

The best Seattle can finish is 12-4. If New Orleans and Green Bay won out they are both 13-3.

The Vegas line shifted 3.5 points from the beginning of this afternoon to now.

The Seahawks are favorited by 3.5? What was the original line

You get 3 for playing at home. so really its pretty much a pick'em at this point.

Okay let me explain this the best way I can:

We should be hoping Green Bay and New Orleans win out.

This won't directly help us, but it will hurt Seattle in the sense that next week's game for them will only be for the #3 seed instead of falling to the #5 seed, which isn't a huge difference (either way they would have to play WC weekend). This, along with how Seattle has played at home compared to on the road this season, might make them come into next week's game a little less motivated, since being the #5 seed might be more advantageous for them.

Obviously they'll still play to win, but you would have to think just instinctively if next week is only for a #3 seed instead of #5, that they wouldn't be as motivated to win.

If we win They automatically fall to 5th or 6th seed because the division winners take the top 4 seeds I believe

Nightmare day for #Seahawks gets worse:

- Chris Carson (hip) out for the season
- C.J. Prosise (broken arm) out for the season
- Duane Brown (knee/bicep) is going to get his knee operated tomorrow and will miss Week 17 at least

Actually, the Niners are -3. They are favored.... I live in Vegas and just checked. I'm shocked we are favored, but im guessing the injuries and them losing to Cardinals might have something to do with that

Yes but that wasn't my point.
