The Seattle Seahawks currently possess the No. 1 seed in the NFC, but their final position in the 2019 NFL postseason standings will hinge on the outcome of their Week 17 contest with their bitter rivals, the San Francisco 49ers.
No matter what happens or what the final score is in Seattle’s upcoming matchup with the Cardinals, they will remain at most or least a game apart from San Francisco heading into the final game of the regular season. Both teams are currently neck-and-neck at 11-3, which means that their showdown will be the game that decides the winner of the NFC West and possibly the entire conference.
Both the Seahawks and 49ers have dealt with a large number of significant injuries, particularly on the defensive side of the ball. Despite this, they have also managed to stay competitive with most of their opponents, doing whatever it takes to seize victory from the jaws of defeat.
This will make the final battle all the more anticipated. The Seahawks’ rivalry with the 49ers is officially back on after a half-decade of dormancy and Week 17 will be the biggest regular-season game for both teams in quite some time.
