Latest Game Odds for Seahawks @ 49ers
The latest odds as of Friday morning courtesy of DraftKings:
· Moneyline: Seattle Seahawks (+230), San Francisco 49ers (-280)
· Spread: 49ers -6.5
· Total: 48.5
The spread opened at 49ers -7 but has moved slightly to -6.5. The line shift is likely a reflection of Seattle’s resilience despite their record. The total of 45.5 suggests expectations of a moderately high-scoring game, but the 49ers’ defense is one of the toughest units in the league, which could suppress scoring.
NBC Sports Bet Best Bets
NBC Sports analyst Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is eyeing 49ers -6.5:
“While the 49ers have found a way to start winning again, it feels their number is a bit too big. Right? They haven’t won a game by more than six points in over three games. However, the last game these two teams played, the Niners won by eight points in Seattle.
The Seahawks get DK Metcalf this week, but their team is not as good as advertised. They are just 2-6 against the spread this season and have plenty of moments of dysfunction.
Take the less obvious line here and watch the Niners cover the 6.5 points at home.”
