SF 49ERS @ SEA SEAHAWKS PREGAME THREAD - 2019 Season Week 17

Seahawks are so predictable and obsequiously annoying

My prediction, ZERO holding calls against Seattle.....here's why:

And at least two to three score-affecting calls esp. in the final 4 minutes of the half/game. Also, if we do jump out to a big lead in the first half, like the Packers game, expect a full officiating aid on a scoring drive to help make it more competitive so people stay tuned in for the second half. Gotta keep those TV ratings up.

All of this ×1000. The NFL will not allow us to run away with this game like we did against the Packers. They will try and top our GOTY against New Orleans because of what's at stake in this one so the refs will get involved , like NC said, if jump out to a 2 score lead or more.

the defense for whatever reason is not the defense it was two months ago but i hope having kittle and sanders helps get us over the hump,. as usual it will be about the team containing wilson. keeping him on the sidelines. they say bosa is well rested so big players make big plays and sunday night they need to lay it all on the line. close game ,3 points either way

Seems like Tartt and even Julian Taylor not being out there is affecting the defense overall more than people expected. We already know how much we need Ford out there.

Losing Kwon has been HUGE. He was excellent in coverage. Greenlaw just hasn't been the same. Which isn't to be expected. Teams have simply been going after our young/inexperienced guys. Dre, Azeez, and Harris.

Part of signing with a team is taking a physical and drug screen. Dude has said soft tissue injuries his last couple yrs in the league.

I can't imagine he's in football shape and going from being pretty much retired to playing in basically a playoff game in less than a week

Good luck

Just beat Seattle Sunday night. IDC about any other seeding scenarios or tie breakers. Honestly if we can't beat this wounded Seattle team right now were not going to the super bowl anyway. So go up there and take care of them and get the #1 seed then sit back and heal up as much as possible. This is just my opinion but with home field I think only the Saints "could" beat the 49ers in a playoff game. I don't believe GB is built for that. I don't believe Philly is healthy enough. I don't believe in Kirk Cousins at all on the road. Seattle is now wounded and beating them Sunday would definitely give the Niners the confidence to beat them again in the playoffs. The Saints are going to be in the NFC championship mark it down. The question is will they be coming to San Fran for it and the answer is yes if this team is really a super bowl contender. Lets go!

Damn TV ratings!!! You're right though!!! I just don't see how the 9ers can runaway with this, but then again there maybe a rematch in January.

This Lynch thing is mostly just a mental thing to keep the Seahawks and the Fans pumped with that edge they always seem to have against the 49ers.

Kittle needs to run wild on these guys to show who is the real beast mode!

Could the Seahawks pick up a running back off another team's practice squad? For example Elijah Holyfield.

tartt especially

Yeah having two rookie linebackers out there with Harris at safety isn't helping either, let's hope bosa has a big game.

I thought he s**t the bed in Oakland his two years there in '17 and '18. Dude averaged 116 yds a game at 4.3 clip with 10 tds in 21 games. He also caught 35 passes. But yeah he hasn't played in 14 months but if he's considering coming back he must have been keeping in shape somewhat.

I think if we beat Seattle that will end their playoff hopes and they will probably lose in the WC round. They just don't look that strong at the moment.

If they win, then I think that will rejuvenate them.

I'm not sure if I have this right, but it looks like if the Vikings beat both the Packers and the Bears, and then the Packers beat the lions, then the Seahawks will drop to the 6th seed with a loss next week. So their first playoff game would be against the Packers instead of the Eagles

Give we beat the Seahawks--and we should--I am 90% certain this is correct without checking tie-breaking procedures.

This is what I understand as well.

1. SF (13-3, top seed based on head-to-head victory)
2. NO (13-3, assuming a victory over Carolina)
3. GB (12-4, division winner based on better division record)
4. PHI/DAL
5. MN (12-4)
6. SEA (11-5)

I love this...

We play most likely Minnesota which we should CRUSH.

Then play NO's i'm sure at home for SB berth.

These fans up here are pathetic. They're so worried about us it's not even funny lol. I wear my niners beanie to a bar last night and a group of douches in their #12 "FAN" jerseys come in and start mad doggin me. I go up to get our drinks and the drunkest one just growls, f**k the niners we're going to kill you next week. I calmly smile and ask him if hes trying to convince me or himself and walk away as he sits in silence lol. I have started the mind games in Seattle. We will be fine lol

Yeah, those NE Tacoma, Burien and Federal Way 12's are hardcore! LMAO

Lol yeah dude, this was in Tacoma but I had a guy mumble something at me when I had my montana jersey on in seattle after their last win (from a safe distance of about 15 ft lol) when I turned to ask him if he had something to say at normal volume he didnt say s**t lol. I dont know if these fans are more trash than the cowboys fans but they're making it a fight for that top spot lol. What kind if fan base gets a #12 FAN jersey anyway? That's gotta be the lamest s**t in all of sports lol. Everyone has a crowd, it's not just seattle lol

Week 17 in Seattle for the one seed. Wouldn't want it any other way
