Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers Point Spread Pick

Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers Point Spread Pick: This is another game I was pretty wishy-washy about. First and foremost the 49ers giving 5 points is frightening in and of itself, but the Hawks have looked nothing good and every bit of anemic this preseason.

I actually liked the addition of Tarvaris Jackson for the Hawks, figuring his position in teaching the offense would allow him to step to the plate as a leader, the guy with knowledge, and therefore play with a new kind of confidence that would do wonders for his game. But so far he hasn’t taken many chances, the line hasn’t blocked well, and the running game has been nonexistent. It looks bad in Seattle, and maybe, just maybe, they’re shooting for Andrew Luck and a win or two.

But anything’s possible still, the season hasn’t even started. The Hawks are the defending champs of the NFC West (if there is such thing as a champ of the worst division in football) and I think they’re better this year. The 49ers have a good coach that is more thorough and x’s and o’s smart that their last head guy, Mike Singletary, who, by the way, is my favorite player of all time. I just expect a little more from the 49ers this year, a good season out of Braylon Edwards, and some big time plays from Frank Gore. Franklyn has a history of stepping on Seahawks.
