The 49ers' high-powered pass offense faces a real challenge every time Brock Purdy squares off against Mike Macdonald's Seattle Seahawks defense. Despite Purdy’s impressive 1,007 passing yards and 11 touchdowns this season, the matchup at Lumen Field puts his arm to the ultimate test—can he rise above his career struggles against a defense that’s held him to just 6.6 yards per attempt and forced five interceptions in the past five meetings?
Key injuries for both teams—including Nick Bosa, Kyle Juszczyk, Leonard Williams and Zach Charbonnet—set the stage for a gritty division battle. Christian McCaffrey’s versatility, Julian Love’s defensive presence, and Fred Warner’s dominance at linebacker could all tip the scale, depending on which team adapts quickest. The looming question: Will Seattle’s run game or San Francisco’s passing attack decide who takes control of the NFC West? Drop your score predictions and get ready for a high-stakes showdown.
