Week 1: Seattle vs San Francisco in Prime Time

TheHawkster · Mar 11, 2013

I'm totally opposed to big games for week one. i hate'em like big thursday night games.
In fact I'd like to see all the non-conference games in the first 4 weeks.

I don't see them having us the first week, we typically get Arizona or a out of division game. besides they want full blown drama when we play and be at our best.

We've played a division opponent on opening weekend the last 4 years in a row (the 49ers twice).
Don't know where you got that from.
I thought they were trying to play as many divisional games on week 1 as possible to get people "hyped up" about the league starting.
The Ravens will probably play the Steelers on TNF though - you don't want to showcase your best game on rusty teams, that's a week 12 "Playoff Indicator" (ie. who will win when these teams meet in the playoffs) if ever I saw one

I hope we open the season at the Giants. Let's play our first and last game of the season at MetLife Stadium. Perfect bookends.

The Mariners do indeed play at home the 8th and 9th.

THANKS OBAMA.

It's actually Wilson's fault.

I'm good with blaming Obama.

We will have the division locked up weeks before this, will actually be anticlimactic I think.

There needs to be a thread to save these kind of posts :thirishdrinkers:

Oh don't worry, I will be here regardless. Now, you (and the other 9ers fans) on the other hand...

^ Winner.

It would be like the St Louis/Seattle game in 2010. Winner takes all. And probably a first round bye in the playoffs!

I blame the Pats. They cost us a Super Bowl.

If they schedule us to play against the 49ers on Prime time, I'd prefer it to be towards the end of the season with the division on the line.

But if it is Week 1, at least Harvin will be healthy then (maybe)

I remember a lot of Arizona games as our first division opponent, not 49ers, maybe there is a reason for that, they stunk it up it didn't register where the Cards had Warner at the time.

I would love an opening weekend prime time game.
'
That being said, i would prefer for both us, and Sanfran to get a few games under their belts before we meet.

I'm hoping for a week 5 match up in prime time.

This would make for a better game, and probably a better indicator of where both our teams are talent wise as this would allow chemistry to develop between our new acquisitions and the rest of the team.

Ideally I would prefer to play at Seattle mid season and the Stick towards season end. In that order for the same reason you guys want the opposite.

The "drama" will be the Seahawks beating the 49ers' (collective) asses in Week One.

Then,...........we don't meet again until the finale.

Now THAT,.........would be some genius programming.

Last year worked out so well for the NFL that I anticipate there will be no divisional matchups in the month of September.

SEA @ SF MNF week 5
SF @ SEA SNF week 13

The Yugoslavian · Mar 12, 2013

I'd be down for a MNF week one against the 49ers and then whenever the final flex games (I think week 16) of the year are, a SNF for the division title. Epic. Unless of course it ends up as the same smackdown as last season...
