Perhaps the best game of Week 15 is in San Francisco where the 49ers take on a rising Seahawks team who has their eyes on the postseason as a wildcard team. The only potential fly in the ointment is a looming game in Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

That could set up a scenario where the Niners, fresh off of a win against the Broncos, could catch Seattle looking ahead.

San Francisco taking out an 8-5 Seahawks team on a four game win streak would be a heavy lift, even at Levi’s Stadium. Seattle is also playing some very good football and has shown that during their last four games by beating the Green Bay Packers, the Carolina Panthers on the road, and a Minnesota Vikings team more riddle than anything else.

Still, inside the division you can get a good game as teams this time of year have seen you one time already and in December, there just aren’t a lot of secrets.

All that said, the Seahawks have been on the verge of being written off for nearly half the season. They had begun to look pretty comfortable as a .500 team before things started to click, and as such, are now described as perhaps the most dangerous team in the NFC, a title that changes team names each week.
