The 49ers are a better team than the Seahawks this year. That’s just a cold, hard fact fans have to face, even if you’re the most hardcore homer in the Pacific Northwest. Heading into their Wild Card matchup on Saturday afternoon, San Francisco is on a roll. The Niners have won 10 straight games and swept the Seahawks in their two meetings in the regular season.
Based on when the game was scheduled, the league doesn’t seem to think much of Seattle’s chances. The oddsmakers certainly don’t. At the moment, the 49ers are favored by 9.5 points.
