It’s 49ers week, and if history’s any guide, the Niners offense is about to run into a brick wall. The last two times our Seahawks have squared off against those guys, we’ve racked up 54 points. Their offense? A measly 9. Three field goals, that’s it. Nueve points, total. Zero offensive touchdowns.
The Macdonald Method Shuts ‘Em Down
We’re talking about *offensive* touchdowns here, not some fluky pick-six or special teams play that doesn’t fall on our Dark Side defense. Over the past three games, our Hawks defense has only allowed a grand total of two offensive TDs to San Francisco. Think about that for a second. That’s insane! Back in 2024, before Ernest Jones was here and without Byron Murphy II, our defense got absolutely shredded for four TDs and 36 points against these same Niners. But even then, in the rematch down in Santa Clara, the 49ers only managed two offensive TDs in a dramatic, last-minute Seahawks win. It just goes to show, in Mike Macdonald’s brief time here as head coach, he’s figured out how to limit that 49ers offense more often than not. Can he pull off that magic again this Sunday? You know our guys are ready.
How Many Times Will They Cross the Goal Line?
So, the big question this week, the one everyone’s buzzing about, is simple: How many *offensive* touchdowns will the 49ers manage to score on our defense this Sunday? We’re talking pure, unadulterated offensive drives ending in six points. Given their recent track record against us, it’s a legitimate question. And of course, there’s always the confidence survey. You know the drill, you’ve done it a million times: how confident are you in our Seahawks? Make sure you throw your vote in, because the more fans who participate, the better data we get from the 12s.
Sunday’s game against the Niners isn’t just another matchup; it’s a chance to continue this defensive dominance and really show the league what Coach Macdonald is building here in the Emerald City. The stakes are always high when these two teams meet. Check back at the end of the week to see how the rest of the 12s voted!
