Seattle Seahawks Week 1 Matchup

On Sunday, September 7, 2025, the Seattle Seahawks will host the San Francisco 49ers at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:05 p.m. ET with television coverage on FOX. The line opened with Seattle listed as +2.5 home underdogs and a total of 45.5. Since then, the spread has nudged down to +2 at reduced juice, while the total climbed to 46. The market correction shows modest support for Seattle in a divisional rivalry where home-field advantage has often mattered.

Trends reflect why bettors approach this game cautiously. Seattle is 3–7 straight up and 2–8 ATS in their last 10 home games, a surprising slump for a franchise historically strong at Lumen Field. Totals have leaned low recently, with the Under cashing in four of their last five contests, though the opener’s move upward suggests expectations for more offense this time around. The Seahawks have dropped three straight to the Niners as hosts, with each of the last two meetings playing to high scorers that saw an average of 52 points dent the scoreboard.

Injuries are already a concern. Tory Horton (Q) and Charles Cross (Q) headline the list, and Cross’s status is particularly impactful as he anchors the offensive line. Protection will be critical with the 49ers’ defensive front capable of taking over games.

Sam Darnold takes over the Seattle offense, but the Seahawks’ defense remains their foundation. Darnold’s ability to avoid mistakes against San Francisco’s pass rush will determine whether Seattle can spring an opening upset. To get the job done, Seattle’s running game will play a key role in how it all plays out. Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet are destined to get a ton of burn on Klint Kubiak’s wide zone rushing attack. Their ability to hit the ground running will go a long way in helping the Seahawks snap the home losing streak to their hated rivals. For bettors, this storyline crystallizes the handicap: Seattle’s defense is trusted, but the offense remains a wild card.

Seattle Seahawks 2024-25 Recap

Seattle’s 2024 season was a mix of highs and lows, finishing 10–7 straight up, 6–10–1 ATS, and 9–8 to the Over/Under. Bettors who backed them ATS found little joy, as the Seahawks consistently failed to deliver value against the number.

Still, individual performances offered hope. DK Metcalf continued to be one of the NFL’s premier physical receivers, capable of dominating corners in isolation. Kenneth Walker III provided consistent production in the backfield, giving the offense balance even when the passing game sputtered. Defensively, Devon Witherspoon took a major step forward, flashing elite shutdown potential in just his second year.

From a betting perspective, Seattle was more reliable in totals markets than against the spread. Their propensity for close games meant spreads were often tight, but Overs cashed enough to provide opportunity when paired with the right matchup. Conversely, their ATS record left backers burned, especially when they were listed as small favorites.

Heading into 2025, the 8.5-win total reflects uncertainty about whether Seattle can take the next step. Optimists believe Darnold will stabilize the offense and allow stars like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Walker to shine. Skeptics remain wary of the offensive line and the inconsistency that plagued them at home a year ago. For bettors, Seattle remains one of the NFL’s trickiest teams: too talented to dismiss, but not reliable enough to back blindly. Week 1 against San Francisco will offer the first clue as to whether this season brings true progress or another year of volatility.

2025 Seattle Seahawks Schedule, Results & Record

The Seattle Seahawks have a new starting quarterback after signing Sam Darnold and trading Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders. The Seahawks could see mixed results from their busy offseason. They essentially swapped Geno Smith and DK Metcalf for Sam Darnold and Cooper Kupp. It’s questionable if they got the better end, mainly because of Kupp’s lengthy injury history and Darnold’s disastrous final two games in Minnesota. Seattle rolled the dice on Lawrence, who has regressed in recent seasons and is coming off a significant foot injury.

It was likely a tough decision to trade your QB1 and WR1 away while releasing one of the best wide receivers in franchise history, but credit to Seattle's front office for pivoting quickly. Darnold was probably the best quarterback to hit free agency, and the Seahawks didn't have to overpay to acquire him, either. The Kupp addition was a curious one. Yes, Seattle needed a wide receiver, but it's difficult to tell if he's lost a couple of steps or was just frozen out of the Rams' offense down the stretch last year. There is nothing incredible about Seattle's wide receiving corps, but Jaxon Smith-Njigba will be relied on heavily.

Gamblers liked Seattle's 2025 draft. Grey Zabel will be a Day 1 starter, Nick Emmanwori was a steal at No. 35 overall, and Elijah Arroyo is an intriguing pass-catching tight end.

In fact, the Seahawks were ranked the draft's top class in the NFC. The ultra-athletic Jalen Milroe has plenty of upside and could be another quarterback option if Darnold’s breakout season proves to be a fluke. Arroyo could develop into a reliable weapon for Darnold. Nick Emmanwori could end up being a chess piece for coach Mike Macdonald. And Grey Zabel, the first-round pick, will help at multiple spots after playing guard and tackle at North Dakota State. But the Seahawks should have done more to bolster last year’s weak offensive line.

Seattle Seahawks Past Seasons (2000)

The Seahawks were founded in 1976 as an entertaining expansion team that quickly became competitive. From 1999 through 2008, Mike Holmgren made the Seahawks a serious contender and NFC champion in 2005. In the 2013 season, Pete Carroll led Seattle to the only Super Bowl championship in franchise history.
