3 things to watch: San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers will meet in the final regular season game of the NFL season on Sunday at 5:20 p.m. PT.

How does Seattle divide carries in the backfield?

Or, in other words, how much action does Marshawn Lynch get? Coach Pete Carroll understandably didn’t divulge his depth chart or plan for his two new running backs, Lynch and Robert Turbin, saying folks will have to “wait and see.”

However, it’s pretty clear the feature back duties will go to rookie Travis Homer, with Lynch and Turbin splitting backup responsibilities.

Carroll did indicate his two new backs only focused on portions of the team’s playbook, which will curb the amount of plays they can contribute.

Ultimately, fans should expect a healthy dose of Homer, with Lynch likely playing short down situations and Turbin serving as a pass protector and perhaps a receiver out of the backfield on occasion.
