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.

The Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers are playing the last, and arguably best, regular season game of the season on Sunday night.

Whichever team wins will secure the NFC West title and a top three seed in the playoffs, while a loss would move Seattle into fifth place and a first round road game against either Dallas or Philadelphia.

That alone makes this must-watch football, and factoring in the triumphant return of Marshawn Lynch to the Seattle offense should make this game an instant classic, much like the team’s first matchup in Week 10.

How much action Beast Mode gets, how Seattle handles George Kittle and pass protection issues up front are three of the biggest storylines in this game, and all three are previewed in this article.

Kickoff tonight is at 5:20 p.m. PT. You won’t want to miss out.
