- NFC West rivals the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks face off tonight on Thursday Night Football
- Under 24.5 points in the first half leads off tonight’s TNG same-game parlay
- Below, see all three legs of a +850 49ers vs Seahawks SGP for TNF
Thursday Night Football heads to the west coast for the first time this season when NFC West rivals the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks face off at Lumen Field. Tonight’s kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 pm ET. Both the 49ers and Seahawks are looking to bounce back from tragic finishes, but is four days enough time to regroup and recover? I’m expecting the short turnaround from Sunday to result in the under hitting for total points in the first half.

It felt like last week’s Buccaneers vs Falcons SGP was destined to hit, based off how Tampa was cruising into halftime. The Bucs were up by 7, Baker Mayfield put up 131 passing yards, and a Chris Godwin touchdown was all but imminent.
Alas, there are no guarantees when it comes to NFL SGPs, particularly in the second half of games. Sometimes, there’s nothing you can do but watch Kirk Cousins go bananas and completely change the trajectory of everything.
That’s why I’m leading off my Week 6 Thursday Night Football SGP with a first-half O/U pick. With two more legs added in, today’s NFL same-game parlay adds up to +850, where a $100 bet would net a profit of $850, but only if all three legs hit. The 49ers vs Seahawks odds list the Niners are 3.5-point road favorites.
49ers vs Seahawks Same-Game Parlay Pick #1: First Half Under 24.5 Points
My gut feeling for this leg initially had me leaning towards the over, but the more I researched the the Niners & Seahawks’ respective 2024 seasons, the quicker I started going in the other direction.
Yes, San Francisco and Seattle are averaging a combined 28.0 first half points points so far in 2024, which admittedly bodes well for the over.
That’s particularly true when the the 49ers’ share of that average has gone up to 16.0, thanks in part to two strong first half performances at home (20 pts vs New England & 23 pts vs Arizona).
However, the key here is “at home.” When they’re on the road, the 49ers’ 1H P/G in 2024 drops to 10.5. When combined with Seattle’s 1H P/G of 12.0, you’ll start to see why we’re favoring the first half under for Thursday night.
Ultimately, games involving San Francisco in 2024 have seen their first half point totals go over 24.5 just once in five games. Though the Seahawks have already gone over that total twice this year, it’s never happened at home. That’s why I’m taking the under in the first half.
49ers vs Seahawks Same-Game Parlay Pick #2: Brock Purdy Passing Yards Over 252.5
On our second leg this week, I’m looking for Brock Purdy to exploit a passing defense that’s dipped over the past two weeks.
Putting up the eighth-best pass defense in the league after five games is not something to ignore, but some context may explain why the Seahawks’ numbers are a little too gaudy for their own good.
In their first three games, they held opposing quarterbacks to 132, 125, and 140 passing yards. Those are some high-quality numbers, right? I’d agree if they weren’t achieved against a rookie QB in his first ever start (Denver), the third-worst passing offense in the league (New England), and a team with their franchise QB on the IR (Miami).
Brock Purdy has been a slayer of the Seahawks so far ⚔️
Record: 4-0
Team PPG: 30.3
Total YPG: 287.0

All things considered, Purdy has not looked his best in recent weeks. Watching him throw three interceptions in the two weeks while his completion percentage dips below league average has been disappointing to say the least.
However, the 49ers are still the fourth-best passing team in the league, with Purdy surpassing 253 yards in three games already this season, while coming up just short in another. While Eric Rosales has the over on Jordan Mason’s rushing yards in his 49ers vs Seahawks player props, I’m counting on Purdy to at least hit 250 again Thursday night.
49ers vs Seahawks Same-Game Parlay Pick #3: George Kittle Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Originally, I was going to lean towards Kenneth Walker III for this week’s Anytime Touchdown pick. However, not only did the odds feel too safe (-125) against a team with the 11th-best rushing defense, but the George Kittle Anytime TD odds looked just a little too good to pass up.
There’s a reason for it, naturally, with Kittle is not yet over his rib injury. However, his full practice participation on Wednesday has me wanting to jump on those longer odds while I still can.
So far this season, Kittle leads the 49ers in receptions despite sitting third in targets, while also leading in touchdowns and red zone targets. He’s also scored five touchdowns in his last four games against Seattle, including a pair of two-touchdown games at Seattle in 2021 and 2022.
I may regret not opting for Walker III for this week’s SGP (or even adding him to juice a 4-legged SGP for +1600), but for the value I’m getting, Kittle is a solid option.

As the NFL season continues to heat up, Thursday Night Football in Week 6 features a highly anticipated matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks. Both teams are coming off impressive wins and will be looking to continue their momentum in this divisional showdown.
For bettors looking to spice up their viewing experience, same-game parlays are a popular option that allows you to combine multiple bets within the same game for a potentially bigger payout. Here are some top same-game parlay picks to consider for the 49ers vs Seahawks matchup:
1. Russell Wilson Over Passing Yards: The Seahawks quarterback has been on fire this season, leading the league in passing yards per game. With a talented group of receivers at his disposal, Wilson should have no trouble racking up the yards against a 49ers defense that has struggled at times this season.
2. Deebo Samuel Anytime Touchdown Scorer: The 49ers wide receiver has emerged as a dynamic playmaker in their offense, leading the team in receiving yards and touchdowns. Look for Samuel to find the end zone at least once in this game as he continues to be a focal point of their passing attack.
3. Total Points Over: Both the 49ers and Seahawks have explosive offenses that can put up points in a hurry. With two high-powered offenses going head-to-head, the over on total points is a solid bet for this game.
4. 49ers Moneyline: Despite playing on the road, the 49ers are coming off a convincing win and have shown they can compete with the best teams in the league. With their defense starting to click and their offense finding its rhythm, taking the 49ers on the moneyline could be a smart play in this matchup.
5. Underdog Spread: The Seahawks are favored in this game, but don’t count out the 49ers as they look to make a statement in this divisional matchup. Taking the underdog spread with the 49ers could pay off if they can keep it close or pull off the upset.
Overall, Thursday Night Football between the 49ers and Seahawks promises to be an exciting and high-scoring affair. By incorporating these same-game parlay picks into your betting strategy, you can add an extra layer of excitement and potentially cash in on a big payout. Good luck and happy betting!
