It’s Thanksgiving this Thursday and as per tradition, three games will played on Thursday instead of the usual one game. The final game will be played between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks. This game will be under the Thursday Night Football bracket. The Niners-Seahawks will follow the Detroit Lions-Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys-Washington Commanders on the same day.

The Niners will come into the game on the back of a couple of dominating wins. Before those games, they were on a three-game losing streak. It has been a rather up-and-down season for the Niners. After winning their first five games of the season, they dropped their next three. After a bye in week 9, they have now won their last two games and are 7-3 so far this season.

The Seahawks on the other hand bring a record of 6-4 to the game. They have had a mixed season as well. The Seahawks have won games against the Arizona Cardinals, the Washington Commanders and the New York Giants. However, they lost against well-coached teams such as the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals. They were defeated by the Rams in their last game.
