Mark your calendars, Seahawks fans! January 12 is when Seahawks vs. 49ers, Round 3 will occur.
The Seattle Seahawks had to wait until the final NFC Wild Card game to know which team they’ll be hosting in the NFC Divisional Round, and now they know they’ll be facing the San Francisco 49ers for the third and final time of the season. Week 1 saw the Seahawks lose 17-13 at home to a 49ers team that was far healthier than than they are now, while Week 18 ended in a 13-3 Seahawks win in Santa Clara to capture the NFC West title and home-field advantage as the No. 1 seed.
Seattle’s last postseason game under Pete Carroll was on the road against the 49ers. Mike Macdonald’s first playoff game as Seahawks coach is at home against the 49ers, only this time the Seahawks will be the clear favorites on this occasion.
