The Seahawks Can't Guard Deebo Samuel

Seattle beat the 49ers twice last year and then won the Super Bowl. Now the Niners head to Lumen Field in Week 5, and the hosts ask the question every fan is thinking: how nervous should you be? They put it on a 1-to-10 scale, and the answer is not comforting. The hosts argue that this “just one of 17” game is a statement game. It’s the Niners’ first true road game of the season, and they’re 4-0 through four weeks. A win puts them two games up on Seattle and a loss would bring all the old doubts back. They also dig into why Mike Macdonald’s defense is so hard to prepare for: it hides blitzes and coverages behind constant window dressing. Then they ask whether the offense, with Deebo Samuel back and Mike Evans added, finally has the answer. Topics discussed include: How much anxiety “at Seattle” gives Niners fans, on a scale of 1 to 10 Whether last year’s two blowout losses to Seattle were a fluke Mike Macdonald’s defense and why it gives Brock Purdy so much trouble Why Week 5 is the Niners’ first real road test Does Sam Darnold get enough respect as a Super Bowl champ? Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the Seattle passing attack Can Deebo Samuel and Mike Evans change the rivalry? Christian McCaffrey’s workload and the 49ers’ run game against a stacked box Are the 49ers actually closing the gap on Seattle, or is this another long Sunday in the Pacific Northwest?
