The first five weeks of the NFL season have flown by quickly and within no time and fans find themselves anticipating the Week 6 matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers. It will be an interesting game as the first-ranked team in the NFC West (Seattle) takes on the surprisingly third-ranked team of the division (San Francisco).

It has been far from an ideal start to the 2024 season for the San Francisco 49ers, who are struggling due to injuries. The NFL’s leading offense in 2023 has been able to win just 2 games through five weeks with its offense being limited to Brandon Aiyuk, Jordan Mason, and Jauan Jennings. For Seattle, it will be a must-win game for the team if it intends to remain atop the NFC West.

For the San Francisco 49ers, the team will look to quarterback Brock Purdy to get things clicking on offense early in the game. His performances through the first five weeks of the 2024 season bear a stark contrast to his performance in the same period last season. By this point, Purdy had 9 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions, and was an MVP candidate in 2023. However, this season, he has 6 touchdowns and 4 interceptions so far.

Seattle will look to Geno Smith and DK Metcalf to bring them back on track after Monday Night’s loss to the New York Giants. The quarterback made no turnovers against the Giants yet was outplayed by Daniel Jones. Smith, who leads the NFL in terms of yards thrown this season will be locked in as he hopes to continue his quest to make a Super Bowl run by beating the San Francisco 49ers.

Defense: Leonard Floyd, Maliek Collins, Nick Bosa, De’Vondre Campbell, Fred Warner, George Odum, Ji’Ayir Brown, Isaac Yiadom, and Deommodore Lenoir

Why can the Seattle Seahawks win?

The Seattle Seahawks will count on Geno Smith to get them off to a dominant start against the 49ers defense. Smith has completed 71.9% of his passes and has a 92.7 passer rating this season. He is a dual-threat quarterback which means the 49ers will need to stay on their toes throughout while attempting to shut him down. This season, Smith has had two, 300+ yard games.

Another reason is DK Metcalf. The wide receiver is back this week and will look to continue his dominance. He leads the team in terms of yards received with 421 yards and 2 touchdowns. Once Metcalf gets in the zone, he becomes unstoppable.

Why can the San Francisco 49ers win?

The Seahawks have managed to pull off narrow victories in the first three matchups of the season against the Denver Broncos, the New England Patriots, and the Miami Dolphins. The team faltered when they faced competitive football teams. The Seahawks are unpredictable and the fate of the Thursday Night matchup will depend on how Geno Smith fares on offense.

The 49ers offense has enough talent to have the Seahawks’ defense roaming in circles. With Deebo Samuel back on the roster this week, Purdy will have all of his weapons on offense except for Christian McCaffrey. San Francisco will look to start turning things around this week as the team intends to stay in the mix to make it to the Super Bowl yet again this year.
