🔮 49ers vs. Seahawks prediction

Seahawks -7 (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sean Tomlinson: "One Seahawks weakness is against tight ends, as Seattle has allowed the sixth-most receiving yards to the position. But that'll be difficult to exploit now, and the Seahawks surrendered the second-fewest yards to wide receivers during the regular season."

See Sean Tomlinson's full analysis in his 49ers vs. Seahawks predictions, including his favorite player prop bet and the best betting trends, injury report, and more.


🔥 Best 49ers vs. Seahawks player prop pick

Christian McCaffrey Over 50.5 receiving yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Liam Fox: "Seattle allowed the NFL's most targets and receptions to the position, alongside the sixth-most receiving yards. And San Francisco's inefficiency rushing the football has forced McCaffrey into his heaviest workload as a pass-catcher in years."

See Fox's full analysis in his 49ers vs. Seahawks player props, including his best bet for Sam Darnold and Brock Purdy tonight.


🙌 Best 49ers vs. Seahawks anytime touchdown scorer pick

Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR, Seahawks (+100) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Phil Wood: "Smith-Njigba has scored 10 touchdowns this season. Considering the 49ers have allowed at least 84 yards and 13.8 yards per reception to him in both games, it’s clear they don’t have an answer for him."

1️⃣ Best 49ers vs. Seahawks first touchdown scorer pick

Zach Charbonnet, RB, Seahawks (+550) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Phil Wood: "Zach Charbonnet has scored 12 touchdowns this season, and he’s scored first for the Seahawks in both of their games against the 49ers. He leads the Seahawks with 12 touchdowns, and he’s scored in three consecutive games."

See Wood's full analysis in his first touchdown scorer predictions, including a +900 first touchdown pick.
