Today's inactives:

The Seahawks will be missing several key players for Sunday's game against the 49ers, including All-Pro safety Jamal Adams and starting running back Chris Carson, who were both listed as questionable on Friday's injury report.
Also out are starting defensive end Benson Mayowa, who was listed as questionable with an ankle injury, and three players who were listed as doubtful: starting left guard Mike Iupati, nickel defensive back Ugo Amadi and running back Carlos Hyde. The Seahawks also ruled out Pro-Bowl cornerback Shaquill Griffin on Friday.
Travis Homer, who was listed as questionable with a knee injury, is active, giving the Seahawks two active running backs in Homer and rookie DeeJay Dallas. Also active after being listed as questionable is safety Ryan Neal, who has started the past three games in place of Adams.

Yea, I don't have a good feeling about today's game. Lots of injuries on a defense that is already horrible, and the Niners are starting to play well.

[obiken]

Yeah, look at JA. is it not time to call Adams a bust?

You're right, it's not time.

Our 4th string RB is better then the 49ers 4th string RB... GO DJ Dallas for his first career TD.

[RiverDog]

My bad feeling isn't so bad after all. This must be the biggest lead we've had in the last 4-5 years.

Bobby W. must be reading this blog about him slowing down, now that he's a 30ish... He isn't playing that way today. The D has woke up,

You were saying?

OK -- now you can breath a little. Time to shuffle off to Buffalo as the #1 team in the NFC again. Maybe we get Adams, Carson and some others back for the trip.

Garappolo really sucked, and I'm not buying the injury excuse.

But the defense did play tons better, best game of the season by far. Finally getting some pressure on the QB.

D played much better today, but still need to improve that pass rush, hopefully Dunlap and Adams help!

I was proud of the effort with the D today, lot more of a ball hawking defense, but was sure disappointed in the 4th quarter D , 49ers backup comes in and carves them up, 3 TD’s that shouldn’t happen... they pretty much reverted back to first 6 games D.... Grrrr... a positive tho is a lot of reinforcements coming

Agreed. But I'll settle for what we did today, 3 sacks and a number of pressures and QB hits.

Okay, you da man.

It looks like Obi's bust is going to play this Sunday vs. the Bills:

Seattle Seahawks' safety Jamal Adams is expected to play Sunday when the Seahawks play at the Buffalo Bills.

“It’s been a while since he’s been with us consistently,” Seahawks' coach Pete Carroll told reporters Monday. “I know he’s excited and dying to ...play.”

Adams was preparing to play against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 8, but a non COVID-19 related illness set him back during the week. He participated in just one practice on Friday and Carroll decided to hold him out another week.

Nice. Adams back. Good. Dunlap, Snacks, Adams, and hopefully get help, form some kind of decent defense to make a real run a the SB in this weak NFC conference.

I'm not sure how weak the NFC is relative to the AFC. There hasn't been a lot of games between the top teams in the two conferences. I guess we'll see one this Sunday as Buffalo is one of the top 3-4 teams in the AFC.

Looks like Dorsett is probably done for the year as he had surgery to fix his foot today. Probably heads to IR for a few weeks, at least. Looks like we also released Kendricks from the PS, too.

If we beat Buffalo, I'm predicting a 14-2 record if no unforeseen issues.

The Rams still concern me. Goff had a horrible game last week against the Dolphins but they have the league's top ranked defense with a solid running game and we still haven't played them. It's hard to tell how we'll match up. We have a 4 games in a row where we'll be heavily favored, classic trap games, and we have a propensity to play down to the level of our competition.

So we'll see.
