Seahawks VS 49ers, why do people pick 49ers?

On NFL..com, only one person out of five "experts" chose the Seahawks to win.

Please someone explain to me what the sudden hype is about the 49ers? When did they start playing any better than when the lost to the Panthers and the Saints?

It's bugging the living hell out of me. They have not been that great this year, by any means

Is this just the media machine churning?

Division opponent....and a good one.  Historically  Seattle is also lesser away from Seattle.

 

I think Seattle losses this week as well.

people still believe in "let down" games, you know like we were supposed to have against the Pats, Dolphins and Buccs.

this isn't a letdown game.

 

49ers are a very good team and Seattle is on the road....and it is a division game

It's a home game for SF. As a Panther fan it would be good to know that the 9ers are a good team and we beat them at their place not that they all of a sudden aren't good. That would diminish what the Panthers did there.

i am aware, but the lazy thought process of people is to say oh they just blew out Saints on MNF so they probably wont play as well next week.  maybe not, but they are better than the 9ers IMO and I dont expect them to lose.  Just trying to find reasoning on why anyone would pick 9ers over them.

I see what you are saying but gotta root for the seahawks.

 

It's clear Seattle is going to win that division so we need San Fran and Arizona to keep dropping down the leaderboard.

I wouldn't mind if the Seahawks lost a few games. Their fans are quickly becoming the most obnoxious around.

Also, you say the 49ers haven't been that good this year. Neither have the Seahawks compared to their 11-1 record. It wasn't that long ago they got lucky and squeaked out wins over St Louis and Tampa Bay. The media wasn't so high on them back then, in fact they were raking them over the coals.

Stop being a prisoner of the moment. They slapped around a mediocre Saints team at home. New Orleans is only 4-3 since starting 5-0.

    • Bain is a beast. I won't deny it. I mentioned it in another thread, but one of Mesidor's sacks was only because Bain shoved Mesidor's body at the quarterback like he was bowling with him. I have never seen anything like it. I hate that the Bucs drafted him. That being said, Bain has to be perfect in order to compete week to week. He plays a high contact position in a game where the most athletic and lengthy have the advantage. I think he will still be a force, but his impact can be minimalized with right blockers and schemes. Freeling has the opposite problem. He's a long limbed, athletic puppy. He has ALL of the advantages physically. He just needs to add strength to his body and improve his technique. In two seasons, Freeling could end up being regarded as one of the best LTs, if not THE best in the game. That's where his potential is. Both have the potential to boom, but Bain has the higher probability to bust. Just looking at it logically.
    • Again, KB did nothing wrong. The play was reversed after it was obvious that KB touched him when he was down. The video shows a ref 5 feet away who should have stopped the play. KB knew he already hit him while the CB was down. I watched that play and I saw he was down and knew we’d win the challenge. Just like when the ref told Cam he doesn’t get those calls yet, it did make me wonder if the ref swallowed the whistle since interception returns are a play where QBs can take a big hit. That was right around the “player safety” increase. Cam got hurt because the ref didn’t call the play dead even when it was ridiculously obvious the CB was touched down and the quick review and reversal showed that.
