Report: Seahawks at Niners on Thanksgiving Night

@patmayo 2h
Other #Seahawks news. They will travel to San Fran for a thanksgiving night game. #49ers

Ugh, a Thursday night away game in SF? Lame. Couldn't have picked a tougher game for a short week.

Although it is probably the hardest game on the schedule anyway, so you may as well double up instead of having to play somewhere else on a short week and making another game more difficult.

I love it. Tough game for a short week, but I love prime time!

Always go there on a short week, and lose a close one. Two years ago it was a Thursday, this past season after a Monday nighter.

Been predicting this for weeks. The prime-time Thanksgiving game has been a rivalry game since they created the tripleheader. Makes a ton of sense.

Would suspect the Sea/SF one at the Clink will be a FOX National Game

Is anyone suprised? Maybe it's my ingrained 'hawk paranoia, but I think the league schedulers will (and have) done everything they can to try to insure the 49ners at least win their home games against us.

Come on...thurs, short week.....seems obvious enough. The 'hawks will simply have to be better than all that (and I think they will be)

great, its gonna be impossible to eat this Thanksgiving

Which will get more turkey thrown at it this year I wonder....our mouths or our TV screens?

One day, Seattle will get an away game against SF that isn't on a short week. One day...

I like it! We are nails in national primetime. Bring It On!!!

Damn, Thanksgiving could be a good one in my house this year.

Cowboys - Eagles earlier game, with my old man a 'Boys fan and Brother a Philly guy. Might need to take the day off work...


(Canadian, BTW)

Rumor is also that SF plays @OAK the week in between the two SF-SEA games. Helps SF bc they don't have to really travel, but if true, I don't like the SF-SEA games being in a three week span.

@RosenbergMerc: Also just out: #49ers will play Raiders in Oakland Dec. 7 between Seahawks games: Nov. 27 at Levi's, Dec. 14 in Seattle

Nah, more like: eat before game, vomit at kick-off, re-eat afterwards when calm is restored.

Looks like we're flying to SF four days after hosting AZ. Tough back-to-back.

This schedule is brutal. BRUTAL. Week four bye, five of our last six in the division with the lone one outside the division in Philly.

Yeah our schedule is tough as hell.

Nobody will have any excuses to use against us if we win the NFC West. I love it.

IF ?????

:th2thumbs: ....you mean WHEN, right..... :th2thumbs:

We've got the toughest division to win. "If", though I expect we win it, yes.

I think our schedule is very favorable other than the four days rest at SF part, which IMO is an inexcusable decision by the league. I'm not the biggest fan of Thursday night football in general because of the disproportionate extra advantage it gives to the home team, but at the very least they could avoid using Thursday for the 2014 seasons most important football game.
