493: Seahawks vs 49ers Divisional Round - Will San Fran Score More Than 3 Points?

Sea Hawkers Podcast

The Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers are back at it again -- now in the divisional round. Niners fans are somehow confident again, despite a narrow win over the Eagles. Is it because they think Kyle Shanahan rediscovered his good playbook? Or is it because they think Sam Darnold has already lost this game due to a minor injury? Maybe they've already forgotten they've been blaming an electromagnetic substation for team injuries. We take a look at the matchups on both sides and what has changed since Week 18. Trent Williams was back in the lineup against the Eagles, but the Niners lost...

Divisional Round Matchup: Advantage Seahawks in the Third Act?

Sea Hawkers Podcast

The 49ers moved on and now must face our Seahawks yet again. With each new matchup, the stakes have been higher and higher. We're examining the 49ers reaction to their win in Philly, injury news and updates, and do Vegas oddsmakers know something about this matchup that we don't? As of posting this show, we now know that it will be a 5pm PT start time on Saturday. We discussed whether there would be any added benefit to an evening game. Maybe it was scheduled later to appease Kyle Shanahan since he was already crying about a possible Saturday start time in the Niners postgame press conference...

Which Seahawks Can Be Surprise Playoff Heroes?

Sea Hawkers Podcast

Our Seattle Seahawks enter the playoffs with a number of players who could become unexpected postseason heroes -- guys who could deliver outsized performances when it matters most. Is there a player on defense who could shadow Rams receiver Puka Nacua? Derek Hall's disruptive presence on the defensive line, despite limited snaps, positions him for a playoff breakout with his speed-to-power rush creating havoc even when sacks don't materialize. Cooper Kupp's regular season numbers don't tell the full story of his impact, but could finally deliver the red zone production Seattle envisioned. We...

Additionally, Coach Derek provides insights on a near-perfect blocking execution that have Grey Zabel and Jalen Sundell getting to the second level of the defense.

Sea Hawkers Podcast

The Seattle Seahawks have earned their bye week as the NFC's top seed, and the dominance couldn't be sweeter. Mike McDonald's squad dismantled the 49ers in a performance that left no question about who was the top team in the NFC.

Charles Cross locked in a four-year, $104 million extension that looks...

Seahawks Lock Down Charles Cross, Playoff Picture Outlook

Sea Hawkers Podcast

With a home playoff game on the horizon, the Seahawks have announced major contract extension for offensive lineman Charles Cross. Sunday's reports have it announced as a four-year extension, and this appears to be in addition to the 2026 season Seattle had tagged him for a fifth-year option. We also talk about what the Seahawks may want to do at running back in the offseason. Following Sunday's slate of games, the playoff positions are all set. There are four potential teams the Seahawks will face in the Divisional round and we take a look at what needs to happen next weekend and where the...

How frustrating was the loss to the New York Giants? There are still elements of the game that have us scratching our heads. We get into the offensive struggles and the questionable play-calling decisions that are leading us to ask an important question: Is it a Ryan Grubb issue, or is Coach Mike McDonald more involved with the offensive philosophy than we have been thinking? We get into three things Mike said in the last two days that lead us to explore the philosophical approach of the Seahawks' offense and why it might be setting the team up for failure.

On the defensive side, the struggles appear to be more related to execution rather than philosophy. We take a look at the run game issues and linebacker performance, particularly focusing on Jerome Baker's "guesses." Despite the defensive struggles, does the offense bear the brunt of the blame for the latest loss? Special teams also come under scrutiny, especially after a blocked field goal that could have turned the game around.

Looking ahead, we preview the upcoming matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Can the Seahawks' defensive line capitalize on the 49ers' offensive line weaknesses and will the offensive line be able to slow down Nick Bosa and exploit the Niners' secondary? Plus, we're already seeing internal drama within the 49ers' locker room. Are Niners fans right that it is time to move on from their current coach? We suggest at least one recommendation. With a short week ahead, the Thursday night showdown will be another important test for our Seattle Seahawks.
