The Seattle Seahawks, now 3-2, face ongoing struggles, particularly with turnovers, in their game against the San Francisco 49ers. Over half of the points scored by the 49ers came directly from Seahawks turnovers. Running backs have struggled with ball security, leading to a lack of production and reduced opportunities for players like Velus Jones, who has seen limited offensive snaps. The rotation at right guard continues as 2024 pick Christian Haynes and 2026 selection Beau Stephens share playing time. The Seahawks will next prepare to face the Denver Broncos in Week 6.
