Seahawks vs. 49ers: How to watch Seattle make the playoffs in week 15
By Lee Vowell
The Seahawks play the 49ers in week 15 in the second meeting of the teams in 2018. Here is how to watch the game and what to watch for.
It has been just two weeks since the Seahawks played the 49ers in Seattle. Seattle won the game easily. But in week 14 both teams won. This was great for Seattle and surprising for San Francisco. Seattle has turned out to be pretty good, but the 49ers still are terrible.
Now, though, Seattle needs just one win to clinch their spot in the playoffs. They should get it in San Francisco. But the 49ers and Richard Sherman would love to make Russell Wilson and the Seahawks to wait at least a week before getting that needed win.
Seattle is still the better and healthier team. The 43-16 win for Seattle over San Francisco in week 13, though, was not without some good aspects for the 49ers. Nick Mullens threw for over 400 yards in week 13 and has another good game against the Broncos in week 14. His confidence is growing.
The Seahawks need to squelch any hope the 49ers have of winning early. A touchdown-scoring drive or two early in the game should make the rest of the game easy for Seattle. Otherwise, things might be stressful at the end.
