Meanwhile, the Niners are 4-1 ATS in their last five versus the NFC West and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 on grass. San Francisco is 10-26-1 ATS in their last 37 as a favorite as well.
PICK: I’m probably sticking with the 49ers at home, but staying away. San Francisco had a sufficient enough offensive output last weekend, but they were done in by a handful of mistakes. The Niners allowed four sacks and also turned the ball over twice.
As for Seattle, they gave up 453 yards and 28 first downs to the Vikings last weekend and were completely shut down in the second half. I like this one to be a close game, with San Francisco taking the cover on a late defensive stand.
