Todays loser will have the playoff hopes diminished. The last time they met it was the nfc championship game, with seattle winning. They won their first super bowl title two weeks later.

Colin is at levi stadium on the field. This game has been marked by both teams all season on their calendars. Reporter you said it. I guarantee you, everyone in the stadium will have their eyes glued on crabtree and sherman.

I always had problems for him. The 49ers won five straight games at home against seattle, but none at levi stadium. I dont get a feeling theres a 12th man at the stadium yet. Do you get that feeling, or no . Reporter you know, i dont. Weve both been to a game in seattle. The fans stay the entire game. I think it will take that sort of effort from the fans here obviously tonight. Its thanksgiving. Theyre in primetime. You know these fans are going to be jacked up. But i do see a lot of seattle fans here right now. Always fun to watch, no matter what the results. Who do you like in this game, colin . Reporter well, heres what i think. Yeah, im from seattle.
