Playoff time is here and NFL fans are revved up for Wild Card weekend. The San Francisco 49ers come into the playoffs as the hottest team in the league, winning 10 in a row and are the heavy favorites in the Seahawks vs 49ers odds for this matchup.

Although the underdogs have been the moneymakers to cover the spread in recent history on Wild Card weekend, the NFL public betting trends indicate most are staying away from picking Geno Smith and the Seahawks to cover. Over 70% of the bets as well as the spread handle is on San Francisco.

It will be the first NFL playoff game of the weekend when the Seahawks attempt to upset the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium on Saturday, January 14th. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:30 pm ET and can be seen on FOX. Our same-game parlay is buoyant on the Niners, but cautious about the potential performance of Seahawks rookie Kenneth Walker.

If you’re unaware, the weather has been miserable in the Bay Area and is expected to stay that way during this matchup in Santa Clara, California. Reports indicate a potent storm for game time with up to an inch of rain as well as wind gusts up to 28 miles per hour. Factor that in to any wager you make.

For our Seahawks vs 49ers same-game parlay, we have three legs that pays out at odds of +400 if it hits. Talk about going in exact opposite directions, the Seahawks are 1-7 ATS in their last eight, while San Fran is 7-1 covering the points heading into this matchup.

San Francisco 49ers -6.5

Not only have the 49ers failed to cover just once in their last eight contests, they are also 7-2 ATS at home this year, while Pete Carroll’s side are 3-4 ATS on the road.

We’re playing a bit cautious here as we moved the line down and handicapped the Niners as 6.5-point chalk. Part of the reason for that is because underdogs have covered 67% of the time during Wild Card weekend in the last four years.

Another factor is the unpredictable weather for this game that could wreak some havoc. With windy and wet conditions, this game might be a bit closer than most bettors think.

Nevertheless, the 49ers are the much better team and defeated the Seahawks quite handily in each of their meetings this year. In their last head-to-head matchup with Purdy behind center, San Francisco won 21-13, although Seattle was down 15 before scoring a TD to cut it to eight with under four minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Anything less than a full touchdown victory for San Francisco would be a surprising result and likely bring down their Super Bowl odds. Despite some suspect game time conditions, we still expect Purdy to roll to a comfortable victory in his first playoff game.

George Kittle Anytime TD

Anywhere you look, including in our Seahawks vs 49ers player props, George Kittle is looking like a favorite target in the over odds whether it be catches or receptions. For our parlay, we love the red-hot tight end to find the end zone considering the roll he’s been on.

Rookie quarterback, Brock Purdy has found Kittle for majors several times since taking over the reigns as starter, whether it be from in the red zone or beyond.

George Kittle Stats In Brock Purdy Starts

DATE OPPONENT REC YDS TD
January 8th Cardinals 4 29 2
January 1st Raiders 4 23 1
December 24th Commanders 6 120 2
December 16th Seahawks 4 93 2
December 11th Buccaneers 4 28 0

Only one time has Kittle failed to score a touchdown in Purdy’s five career starts and that was in the pivot’s very first time taking the field knowing he’d be the main signal caller for an NFL game.

In the 49ers following four contests, the Iowa State product connected with Kittle for seven scores, an incredible run of majors leading into the playoffs. Kittle had two TD’s when they defeated Seattle last month.

Furthermore, no team in the NFL gave up more yards to tight ends this season than the Seahawks, who allowed 69.24 yards per outing to opposition at that position. You can count on San Francisco to continue to exploit that on Saturday afternoon.

Kenneth Walker Under 64.5 Rushing Yards

What an awesome rookie season it’s been for Kenneth Walker who ended off the year as the favorite in the NFL offensive rookie of the year odds following a 1,000 yard rushing season where he scored nine touchdowns.

Now, he gets his toughest test against a 49ers defense that was tops in the league this year and second overall in rush yards allowed per game. Stacked on the defensive line as well as at linebacker, San Francisco only allowed an average of 77.7 rushing yards per game.

Walker closed the season on a high, hitting the century mark in each of his last three outings. However, in two games against the 49ers this year he COMBINED for 16 carries and 57 yards total.

He was also nursing an ankle injury this week, according to the Seahawks vs 49ers injury report. Although he’s since been cleared, the lingering effects may be enough to slow him up a bit.

Needing to win their last two to make the postseason, the Seahawks relied heavily on Walker down the stretch as he carried the ball an average of 26 times in his last three outings. That may have been part of the reason for his ankle ailment as those carries accounted for over 34% of his rush attempts over the course of the whole season.

We’ll end off with this, only one tailback rushed for over 64 yards against the 49ers this year and that was Josh Jacobs who had 69 yards on the ground in that wild 37-34 overtime contest a couple of weeks ago. Given all the aforementioned factors, our prediction is it’s unlikely to happen again here.
