We like the San Francisco 49ers to defeat the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

After winning their first three games this season, Seattle have lost back to back conference games.

The Niners may still be without Christian McCaffrey. But, Jordan Mason has done an excellent job in his place.

Deebo was off last week. We expect him to rebound this week. In six games against Seattle, Samuel has 40 catches for 642 yards while rushing for 103 as well (6 touchdowns.)

In their last five games against each other, the 49ers have won everyone of them (5-0 SU/4-1 ATS.)

San Francisco own an 11-4 SU record in their last 15 meetings with Seattle as the favorite.

Seattle has shown recent struggles against NFC opponents going just 2-6 over their last eight games against them.

Although this -3.5 line isn't great, we believe that the Niners have what it takes to get back to .500 on the year and win by a touchdown or more on Thursday.
