The 2026 NFL Divisional Round begins this weekend, with four exciting games to be played.
One of the marquee matchups is on Saturday night, as the 49ers head to Seattle to play the Seahawks.
Despite Seattle being the better seed in this matchup, there's one stat that might make 49ers fans feel more confident heading into this weekend's match.
What stat should make 49ers fans feel confident they'll win?
Seattle is known to have one of the best fanbases in the NFL, which makes it a tough location for opposing teams to play at, especially during the postseason.
However, Brock Purdy enters Saturday with a very encouraging record when he plays in Seattle.
He's 4-0 in his career when the 49ers play in Seattle (via StatMuse).
As stated, the playoffs are a different scenario, but it's definitely an encouraging sign to see that Purdy has been so dominant in the past when the team heads to Seattle.
In those four games, Purdy has an average passer rating of 105.0, 8 touchdowns and only 3 interceptions.
Each team had one win in the two-game season series this year, with both wins coming at the opposing team's stadium.
The 49ers had an early-season win at the beginning of September, but the Seahawks won on the road just a couple of weeks ago in their second game.
