Kyle Shanahan vs Pete Carroll
San Francisco 49ers (7-3) are riding high off of an impressive 27-14 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-4) in Week 11. Although they secured the victory, they only came up short of covering the 13.5-point spread, continuing a trend of going 1-4 against the spread over their last five games. Their balanced offensive attack boasts 25.90 points per game with impressive rushing yards averages (120.10) per contest.
San Francisco 49ers Are Riding The Momentum
Jimmy Garoppolo has been impressive, completing 64.11% of his passes for 261.00 passing yards per game – as part of an offense totaling 381.1 yards per game overall. Entering their NFC West matchup against Seattle Seahawks, they aim to increase momentum and consolidate their standing within their division.
Seattle Seahawks: Meeting Challenges Head on
The Seattle Seahawks (6-4 record, 5-5) have experienced some difficulties lately after an impressive 5-2 start to their season. Most notably in Week 11 against Los Angeles Rams when they had a 13-0 lead but ultimately fell 17-16 without covering a 2.5-point spread on the road – leaving their 5-game ATS record unchanged at 5-5 overall. Now looking to reestablish themselves as NFC West powerhouses again
Geno Smith returned from an elbow injury suffered against the Rams to play, showing his determination and resilience. Meanwhile, the Seahawks’ offensive performance has been strong with an average of 23.50 points scored per game and an even split between rushing (112.30 yards on average) and passing yards 196.20 yards gained.
Key Player Performances Jimmy Garoppolo has been the undisputed architect of the San Francisco 49ers offense this season, showing his proficiency with passing. A combination of an efficient running game led by a committee of running backs and effective passing to playmakers such as Deebo Samuel has also propelled their offensive success. On defense, the 49ers will look to disrupt Seattle’s offensive rhythm while capitalizing on turnovers to maintain their 5-5 against-the-spread record.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith’s resilience has become the focal point of camp. Smith must overcome an injury and continue leading the offense against the San Francisco 49ers; receiving players Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf are an essential addition. Meanwhile, Seattle’s defense seeks to create turnovers to stymie San Francisco’s multidimensional offensive approach.
Expectations and Predictions
Expectations are high that this Thanksgiving Day battle between the 49ers and Seahawks will be fiercely contested, given Geno Smith’s injury and return. Line movement caused by Geno Smith’s injury only adds more suspense into an already unpredictable matchup; and while San Francisco may have momentum coming off their victory last weekend, Seattle remains determined to defend their home turf from any challenges they might pose to victory.
The 49ers must capitalize on their offensive balance to exploit any vulnerabilities in the Seattle Seahawks’ defense, while Geno Smith must find ways to penetrate 49ers defense and take down his NFC West rival. The history between these teams adds an extra level of excitement when facing each other in this NFC West contest.
