Seattle Seahawks Vs San Francisco 49ers: Las Vegas Line & Pick Against the Spread

by bogbit

The Seattle Seahawks travel down the West Coast to take on their rivals the San Francisco 49ers on December 12th. The Seattle Seahawks have been blessed to play in the NFC West and they have a 6-6 record heading into this game with their rivals the San Francisco 49ers.

Mike Singletary and his San Francisco 49ers are done for the 2010 NFL season and the optimism that was rampant in the preseason has now been replaced by frustration. The San Francisco 49ers lack of a quarterback was the main reason they could not win games early in the NFL season.

Seattle Seahawks Defense vs San Francisco 49ers Offense

The Seattle Seahawks have the second worst pass defense in the NFL but it may not come into play in this game. Troy Smith has not lit the world on fire as the San Francisco 49ers quarterback and with the loss of Frank Gore the offense sputtered in their game against the Green Bay Packers on the road.

Vernon Davis may make the difference in this game. Look for short passes over the middle and when Davis rumbles down the field after the catch the Seattle Seahawks defenders will not be able to wrap him up.

Defense against the pass is the number one weakness of this Seattle Seahawks defense. they are giving up almost 300 yards per game to opposing quarterbacks but this isn’t their defenses only problem. They are yielding 120 yards per game on the ground also. Pete Carroll has failed to address critical defensive issues in the secondary and it will haunt them as the season closes out. The San Francisco 49ers offense has the edge over the Seattle Seahawks defense.

San Francisco 49ers Defense vs Seattle Seahawks Offense

The San Francisco 49ers defense has been good all season long and their run defense has been better than average. They are holding opposing running backs below 100 yards per game and in this home game they will face Marshawn Lynch. Against the pass the San Francisco 49ers have been solid also. They are only allowing the opposing quarterbacks 216 yards passing and they have been solid on the corners all season long.

Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is coming of a big day against the Carolina Panthers defense and he may be a little worse for wear after that game. Matt Hasselbeck is not the top ten quarterback he once was and he is averaging just over 220 yards per game in the passing department. Mike Williams is the only wide receiver worth discussing on this team and he has been hindered by an injury the last few weeks. The San Francisco 49ers defense has the edge over the Seattle Seahawks offense.

Seattle Seahawks vs San Francisco 49ers -5.5: Pick Against the Spread & Breakdown

The Las Vegas Hilton Superbook has set the line on the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers with the home team Niners as a 5.5 point favorite. The Seattle Seahawks are a five point road underdog for a reason. They are awful on the road.

The Seattle Seahawks are 2-3 against the spread on the road and have played their worst ball away from Qwest Field. The San Francisco 49ers are 2-4 against the spread on their home field and they have played equally bad at home and on the road. Take the home team San Francisco 49ers -5.5 over the Seattle Seahawks.
