Now, obviously the biggest edge the Seahawks have over the 49ers is Russell Wilson. I would call it a battle, but unfortunately for San Francisco, they are bringing a pea shooter to a tank fight when comparing quarterbacks.
But San Francisco does have the more talented roster, top to bottom. I doubt you’ll find many Seahawks fans argue the reverse of this. So other than the QB edge, what gives the Seahawks a better chance to win the division than the 49ers?
Well, thanks to the NFL schedule makers, the answer is rest.
