Alright, listen up, because 92 percent of Seattle Seahawks fans are absolutely convinced the San Francisco 49ers are about to snap their touchdown drought against our beloved Hawks this weekend. That’s right, almost every single one of us expects the Niner offense to finally find the end zone after a dry spell, and a big chunk of fans are bracing for a multi-score day.

Buckle Up: The Niners Are Coming for Points

This isn’t just a gut feeling for the 12s, either, it’s backed by some cold, hard facts that have fans worried. A solid 38 percent of us think the 49ers are gonna hit us for at least two touchdowns, and a significant 32 percent are even predicting three or more. Why the pessimism for our D? Well, the numbers don’t lie. San Francisco is currently leading the entire league with a +58 point differential, while our Hawks are sitting sixth at a respectable +32. They’re averaging a whopping 30.5 points per game, and our defense, dominant as it usually is, is giving up an average of 18.3 points per game to opponents. When you crunch those numbers, it looks like the 49ers could easily put up anywhere from two to four touchdowns, landing between 18 to 31 points. Twenty-four points, say three touchdowns and a field goal, actually feels like a pretty good prediction for this weekend.

Hawks Are Headed Right, But the Offense Has Questions

Despite the looming threat from the Bay Area, there’s still a ton of optimism brewing in the Emerald City. A strong 74 percent of fans are confident that the Seahawks are indeed heading in the right direction this season. After four weeks, we’re sitting pretty at 3-1, which is exactly where we were last season in 2025. Our defense? Still very dominant, no question there. But let’s be real, the offense has some of us scratching our heads. However, when you dig into the stats, the offense under OC Brian Fleury isn’t as different from the start of last season as it might feel. This season, after four weeks, the Seahawks have put up three 30-point games, compared to just one in 2025. We’re averaging 26.3 points per game now, up from 24.3 points last year. We’ve racked up 13 offensive touchdowns, beating last season’s 10, and our yards per play are nearly identical, at 5.9 in 2026 versus 5.8 in 2025. Yeah, there have been some growing pains, and those penalties, especially in the Chargers game, truly hurt. But you can’t deny there are big things to be optimistic about with this team, and 74 percent of the fans totally agree.

So, what do you think? How many touchdowns are the 49ers going to put up against our Hawks? Are you feeling good about our direction? Let’s get this W, Go Hawks!
