On the other hand Hyde might be out as well but he wasn't the Heart and soul of our offense.

Still think Lynch will play, but him being out certainly would help us.
He's gonna play, they need this game.

If the pass rush can contain Wilson, should be good. When he can get outside and make those deep throws...its over.
Both points can not be overestimated. The SEA deep ball kills teams time and time again and has been the main reason for their winning in the 4th quarter. You can almost predict when it is going to happen. You just can not let their receivers get behind you.

It is obvious SEA will be coming out desperate and super aggressive. They know we will be spreading the ball around underneath and they will definitely try to jump routes. This may be an opportunity to come out on the second play with a slugo or some fake screen or fake short pass and a go rout deep.

Kind of how I'm seeing it as well. SEA is hurting over that last game and they already seem to have our number in games played up there with their "12th Man" noise going full tilt.
This has the feeling of a blowout with Gabbert looking like his old self under constant pressure. Not quite as big of a blowout as the AZ game, but 28+ points.
"Guys gotta forgive each other fully. Talking about players and coaches. Until we do that we'll never reach our full potential, "said Earl, when speaking to the media on Wednesday.
In case you haven't noticed, the Seahawks are a circus. Like Danny says - a really talented circus, but a circus nonetheless. The Hawks currently sit at 4-5 after a depressing loss to the Cardinals at home in Primetime. Remember the day when the Hawks were invincible at home? Yeah, me too.
Amidst the chaos of offensive line dysfunction, Russell Wilson just not playing that great, and miscommunication on both of sides of the ball - the Seahawks' season and playoff hopes are in jeopardy. We could seriously name a million reasons why the season has gone badly. Kam Chancellor held out. The Rams are tricky. J.R. Sweezy got blown up. Someone held. Russell made a horrible throw. Jermaine Kearse, what were you even doing? Cary Williams, make a play there.
There's a lot of wrong going on. Now - I'm not the one to read too far into what players say; players talk to the media nearly every day. Some things get misquoted, some things get misunderstood, and some things get misheard. But I've always made sure to pay close to attention to Earl's pressers - as sometimes - they are incredibly revealing.
Earl Thomas spoke to the media again on Thursday, following practice. When asked if the "chemistry of the secondary is the same of past years", Earl responded decisively, cutting off the reporter:
"Of course not."
Earl, went asked what was "holding them back", elaborated.
"I think it's the attitude. You gotta give it up for the next guy - it's not showing up all time right there."
Watching this presser and reading in between the lines - it's not hard to wonder if there is something deeper going on here. Earl kept mentioning the "attitude" of the secondary and how guys need to forgive each other. Whether that's in reference to the Super Bowl, Kam's holdout, a locker room struggle, or whatever - it's easy to speculate that there's something else going on with the chemistry in that locker room and in the individual meeting rooms that we simply don't know about.

He's so high on himself, clearly, he thinks nothing is his fault. Hate dudes like that.
Originally posted by 5Jan2003:Providing that there is no strip-sack TD or pick 6, or frankly any turnover leaving SEA with a short field, we should be ok as I see our offenses being equally mediocre between the 20's.
Our defense will have to directly account for a TD to win this.
Also winning the kicking/return game will figure large.
Niners cannot start drives inside their own 10, because hilarity will ensue, the home crowd will go ape-poop, and we will cave.
Ball protection, move the chains, field position.

Lynch will play. It's always something with him every week. I think he just makes things up.
