The Los Angeles Rams may be among the favorites to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl, but two teams in their own division are the most likely to stand in their way. That would be the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers, and they close out their season against one another. Therefore, we’ve got our best Seahawks vs. 49ers predictions for SATURDAY.

We’ve also tacked on something else beyond our top Seahawks vs. 49ers picks - a guaranteed two-part Sleeper Fantasy promo code bonus!

Seahawks vs. 49ers Predictions for NFL Week 18, Saturday 1/3

It wasn’t pretty, especially in the first half, but Seattle once again went across the country to take down the Carolina Panthers and keep their hopes of a #1 seed in the NFC alive. Head coach Mike Macdonald has been absolutely incredible on the road, and they did the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a favor in the process.

Of course, we’re here for Seahawks vs. 49ers predictions, not picks on the NFC South. The NFC West is one of the strongest divisions of any NFL season, and the 49ers' win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football had huge implications. They can now remain at home all the way until hoisting the Lombardi Trophy!

That’s right - the Super Bowl is in San Francisco this year. Before we look too far ahead, we’re actually going to be looking all the way back to Week 1. These teams opened their season against one another, and as they prepare to close out in the same way, we’ve got a best bet from our Seahawks vs. 49ers predictions to add to our NFL expert picks.
 

 

 

Seahawks vs. 49ers Best Bet: Jaxon Smith-Njigba Anytime TD (Add Him To A Sleeper Lineup)

It was actually last season when Seattle snapped their six-game losing streak to San Francisco, but since Sam Darnold just joined the squad this year, we need to focus on more recent matchups. He and the rest of Seattle actually lost that Week 1 game 17-13, with their defense not looking like they have since then.

With how dominant they’ve been, it’s sure to have fans backing them with their Seahawks vs. 49ers predictions. However, can we trust their offense? Well, we have the same question with San Francisco’s defense, given the absences of Nick Bosa and Fred Warner, so truthfully, we don’t want to have to trust either side to come out victorious.

Therefore, we’re going to focus our Seahawks vs. 49ers picks on the player prop markets. Specifically, with the NFL’s best WR this year, Jaxon Smith-Njigba. He’s been absolutely unstoppable, even when defenders poke him in the eye like Panthers’ Jaycee Horn did this past Sunday.

Of course, his first two years were great themselves, but when he started this season against San Francisco (with a healthy Nick Bosa and Fred Warner) and put up 124 yards on nine receptions, he was truly marking himself as special. He hasn’t slowed down since then, while San Fran’s defense even allowed 44-year-old Philip Rivers to carve them up recently.

He already has double-digit TDs on the year, so we’ve got Jaxon Smith-Njigba to score an anytime TD (use his Sleeper card) as the best bet from our Seahawks vs. 49ers predictions!
