The San Francisco 49ers have found great success in 2022.
With a record of 9-4 and a two-game lead in the NFC West, the 49ers are in the driver’s seat to yet another postseason berth, where they look to build on their regular season success.
They are currently the hottest team in the NFL.

With consecutive wins over the Los Angeles Rams, Los Angeles Chargers, Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, Miami Dolphins, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the 49ers look to continue their streak in tonight’s game.
With their streak in mind, let’s take a look at what this game will look like, and what it means to each team.
Thursday Night Football, Previewed
Tonight’s game marks the second time that these two teams have played this season.
In their first matchup, the 49ers prevailed, 27-7.
This was the game in which Trey Lance got injured and Jimmy Garoppolo stepped in.
Tonight, rookie Brock Purdy will take the field for his second career start.
A lot is on the line for both teams.
The Seahawks are two games behind the 49ers in the race for the NFC West.
A win for the Seahawks would be paramount in their hopes of catching the 49ers.
However, if the 49ers are victorious, they will hold a three-game lead over the Seahawks, ending the Seahawks’ chances at the division.
Will Geno Smith and the Seahawks be able to put up any points against an NFL-best defense?
How will rookie Purdy fare in a primetime game?
Tune in tonight, in what should be a hard-fought divisional matchup.
