Last meeting
The Seahawks shut out the 49ers 24-0 in Week 10 last season to sweep the series.
Last week
The 49ers turned the ball over six times en route to a 23-13 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. ... Seattle QB Matt Hasselbeck was sacked five times in a 34-10 loss to the Bills.
Keep your eye on ...
Seattle's wide receivers: Last week Nate Burleson was expected to pick up the slack without Deion Branch or Bobby Engram in the lineup. But Burleson suffered a season-ending injury, and Hasselbeck is running out of receivers. Second-year WR Courtney Taylor and undrafted free agent Logan Payne are the only healthy receivers currently remaining on Seattle's active roster.
Julius Jones: The Seahawks called 41 passing plays vs. Buffalo, but with Seattle's passing game limited by injuries, expect the Seahawks to run more than the 21 times they did last week. Julius Jones rushed for 85 yards and two TDs as a member of the Cowboys in his only performance vs. San Francisco in 2005.
J.T. O'Sullivan: The 49ers QB is still looking for his first touchdown as a starter. O'Sullivan went 14-of-20, completing 70 percent of his passes vs. Arizona, but turned the ball over twice (one interception, one fumble).
