Key Details
Seattle Seahawks
Seattle’s offense managed just 230 total yards against San Francisco, ranking 29th overall in early-season metrics. Their passing attack, led by quarterback Sam Darnold, struggled mightily as he completed just 16 of 23 attempts for a mere 150 yards.Â
 Darnold, who signed with Seattle after a successful stint in Minnesota, had just 150 passing yards, marking his lowest output in a start since 2022. However, there are bright spots to build upon. Wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerged as Darnold’s clear favorite target, hauling in passes for 124 yards – his second-highest receiving total in a game. The third-year receiver’s chemistry with Darnold could prove crucial for Seattle’s offensive success moving forward.Â
Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh’s offense showed explosive potential in Aaron Rodgers’ debut, ranking 21st overall but impressively 3rd in scoring, after putting up 34 points. The veteran quarterback connected on 22 of 30 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns, spreading the wealth among seven different receivers.
 Rodgers looked revitalized in his Pittsburgh debut, demonstrating the arm talent and field vision that made him one of the game’s elite quarterbacks. His four touchdown passes went to four different receivers, showcasing the depth and versatility of Pittsburgh’s offensive weapons.
Prediction
This feels like a game that will come down to the end. We wish Vegas gave more points on this one, then it would be an easy pick. However, they did not. We still think the game will be close enough that the 3-point spread will be a winning bet if you pick the underdog Seattle.
