SF sucks I don't know that I'd feel comfortable betting money on them even getting 9

maybe they grind it out with Gore and keep it within 8

Seahawks do have a ton of injuries but there may be no better team at home than Seattle.. No way I would be against them at home.. That's why Vegas is vegas. looks tempting to take SF +9.. & Seattle is injured etc.. . & watch Seattle win by 14 or more..

Curious, if you came out with your own Power Rankings, where would you list SF?

I like the under better. Seattle's defense plays much better and faster at home than on the road. SF won't score much. Sea might end up with some decent field position and squeak out a 10 point victory.

If the Niners have no turnovers? Did they convince Joe Montana to come back and play QB for them?

The Hawks also enjoy the best HFA in the league.
A lot of people won money taking the Bills last week, because they knew that the Hawks are a different team on the road.
Not saying the Hawks will cover this, because San Fran looked better on offense than I thought, but going into Seattle is a tough road to hoe for O'Sullivan this week.

Seattle will score 10-14 points due to turnovers alone.
To the guy who said if the 49ers have no turnovers they'll win... I think in the NFL you can say that about any team. The problem is, the 49ers WILL have turnovers.

I know one thing. I'm picking up SEA DEF that someone dropped and playing them this week, that's for sure.

12th man at Quest Field is one of the loudest, if not the loudest, in the NFL. Not to knock the rabidity of other teams' fanbase (and I'm no Hawk Homer myself), but I was at the Hawks/Niners game last year, and the fans were just as deafening in the first when they were up 10-0 as they were in the early fourth when they were up 24-0. Situation for the Seattle O are much different than last year, although they were missing key elements of their offence (Branch and SA). D stepped up to hold Gore under 75, and Alex Smith to under 115 yards off of 28 attempts.As others mentioned, Seattle tends to be a different team at home.

Could not agree more. Laying down more than 7 pts on the Hawks is too risky at this stage of the season. The offense hasn't hit its rhythm yet. Take the 8.5 pts.the rover said:

Better yet, don't take the bet at all. I can't believe people are talking themselves into either team.If you want a sure thing, take the Giants -9 vs the Rams.

In my Power Rankings, the Niners would be listed under "No."

No way they even win , the Seahawks wont win more than 4 - 5 games this season and it wont be one of them .

I would feel pretty comfortable taking the 7 1/2 points but 7 or less I feel is a big guess. Seattle should win but by a td or less. I would not be a big upset if Seattle lost this game with their injuries.

People are REALLY undervaluing SEA in this thread. Yeah they are banged up at WR, but it is not like the WRs they are missing are Owens and Moss caliper players. Their defense is going to chew up SF at home. They played like they didn't get off the plane in Buffalo, but that is not new for this team. Compare last year's home/away record and stats. I am on Seattle in my $10k survivor pool and might even talk myself into giving up the points for some extra $

Maybe San Francisco sucks, but Seattle is worse. Seattle has some MAJOR problems:
- decimated at WR
- patchwork offensive line
- RBs are career backups and castoffs
- QB has herniated disc
I would not be surprised to see Hasselback get put on IR if they keep losing. But nothing would surprise me with this team. They're not just bad, but they could potentially end up as the worst team in the NFL this season.
SF is going to destroy them. J.T. O'Sullivan will look like the second coming of Kurt Warner 1999.
The 8.5 point spread is a joke. You know the spread is off when your first thought is, "Wow, I can't believe Seattle's getting that many points!"

Come on dude, you gotta do better than that.

What, do you think that was a good performance? I was one of the ones saying the line was too high. Seattle is not a very good team right now, and they lost yet another wide receiver to injury in the game. The Niners took 8 sacks, let Julius Jones rush for 127 yards (despite having no receiving threats to guard), and needed two lucky deflections for INTs to be in a position to send the game to overtime. The OT pass from O'Sullivan to Bruce was a nice play, but it was also lucky; Bruce doesn't have the speed to get open on that route anymore, so it took a perfect pass to make the completion. I'm willing to bet on the number of perfect JT O'Sullivan passes for the rest of the season being in the low single digits.

Holy cow, all sorts of people were way off base with predictions in this thread.
I know 49er games dont get televised anywhere, but the 49ers aren't nearly as bad as they're made out to be. Match them up with a really inured Seattle team, and there's no way I would've picked Seattle. But I'm sure these same people will pick Detroit at SF next week.
And JT O'Sullivan was not just lucky. He has shown really good accuracy ever since he started in the preseason. That pass to Bruce in OT was money. He looked really good out there today. If anything, he holds onto the ball a bit too long though.

And the Seashawks needed a fluke fumble recovery and a fluke pnt block/first down to get 14 of their points. Wierd breaks went both ways.

Moderate hijack here, but...
Reason #10,498 why CBS Sportsline analysis blows.
This--From last Wednesday re: Isaac Bruce.
"Week 1 doesn't figure to be the only week he goes without a catch this season and against a tougher Seattle defense in Seattle, Week 2 doesn't seem like it is a better matchup at all. He doesn't figure to do much next week and we suggest keeping him on your bench"
This--from tonight re: Bruce
"San Francisco WR Isaac Bruce didn't record a catch Week 1. We hope you didn't sit him Week 2 because he absolutely went wild."
I guess this is why we come here. Duh.
