The San Francisco 49ers host the Seattle Seahawks in a matchup of NFC West foes on Thursday Night Football. The overall series between the teams is tied at 13 games a piece, with the 49ers winning each of the last 3 contests. This week's game also marks the 49ers 8th Thursday Night game in franchise history. San Francisco has posted a 5-2 record, including 2-0 at home, in these prime time matchups.
Last week, the 49ers (4-2) fell to the New York Giants 26-3. With 75 reception yards on the day, WR Randy Moss (15,032) became just the fourth player in NFL history to surpass 15,000 career reception yards. He trails WR Jerry Rice (22,895), WR Terrell Owens (15,934) and WR Isaac Bruce (15,208) for the most receiving yards in NFL history.
Under head coach Jim Harbaugh, the 49ers have posted a 4-0 record in games following a loss. The 49ers are one of five teams (Atlanta - 6-0; Baltimore - 5-0; Green Bay - 4-0; Pittsburgh - 6-0) to post a perfect record following a loss since 2011. The 49ers are 9-2 at home, 12-4 against the NFC and 5-1 against the NFC West during the Harbaugh era.
The Seahawks (4-2) are coming off of a 24-23 win over the New England Patriots.

Golden Nugget Award: 49ers WR Deebo Samuel continues dominating play in loss to Seahawks
By Sasha D. Robinson
Oct 6
Each week, I present the Golden Nugget Award to a San Francisco 49ers player who had an outstanding game or managed to defy the odds. Week 4's award goes to third-year wide receiver Deebo Samuel. The other nominees for this week's award were quarterback Trey Lance for coming off the bench and displaying why the 49ers traded up to the No. 3 overall pick to draft him, defensive ends Dee Ford and Nick Bosa for showing dominance along the defensive line, and running back Trey Sermon for his 19 carries for 89 rushing yards against the Seattle Seahawks.
Samuel, whose real name is Tyshun, received the nickname Deebo, the name of the notorious bully from the movie "Friday," from his father Galen, because he always took things away from people as a toddler.

Deebo Samuel showing flashes of 49ers great Jerry Rice, says NFL.com
Deebo Samuel is the NFL's leading receiver through four weeks of play. He has 490 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns on 28 receptions, which puts him on pace for over 2,000 yards through 17 games.
Now, a lot has to happen between now and the end of the season for Samuel to come anywhere close to that milestone. While Calvin Johnson was 36 yards shy of that mark in 2012, no one has reached it. Samuel would have to maintain his current pace and stay healthy to come close, even with the benefit of a 17-game season.
While the receiving record would be a significant challenge, NFL Media researcher Dante Koplowitz-Fleming shares
