| (MySportsbook) - In the National Football League, there is truly no place like home. When the Seattle Seahawks try to take down the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at Qwest Field, they will be doing so in the interest of keeping those home fires burning well into the month of January. Seattle enters Week 14 with the best mark in the NFC at 10-2, and can draw nearer to homefield advantage in the division by defeating San Francisco. Mike Holmgren and company clinched the NFC West thanks to the St. Louis Rams' loss |

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - Contrary to the popular beliefs about Ahmed Plummer, the San Francisco 49ers' high-priced, injury-plagued cornerback says he actually does care about playing football. And Plummer has plenty of time to think about what's important to him these days.

What's more, he seems unlikely to return to the 49ers next year, given his hefty salary-cap figure |
