Bookies.com: Bet the under in 49ers vs Seahawks game

Bill Speros writes: “Both teams limp into this short-week NFC West showdown. Upsets were on the menu for the Seahawks, who somehow lost to the Giants despite running back a fumble 102 yards. And the Niners, who blew a 10-point lead in the 4^th quarter in a 24-23 loss to the Cardinals. The 49ers have won 3 straight against Seattle. Both defenses will keep this one close. And low scoring.”
