Humble pie seattle1/30/2024 ![]() Wilson put himself in the running for the rookie of the year with a very efficient night, passing for 171 yards and throwing four touchdowns, while picking apart the 49ers defense. Without Justin Smith they continue to struggle to get any pressure on Russell Wilson, and the result was the second straight week that they look far from dominant. ![]() The Seattle offense controlled the flow of the game and the clock, and San Francisco could not get off the field. Grade: FĪfter a second half against the New England Patriots that they would like to forget, the 49ers did nothing to silence the concerns about the amount of points and yards they are surrendering as the season wraps up. ![]() As a team San Francisco could only manage 82 yards on the ground on 19 attempts. LaMichael James and Anthony Dixon saw limited action, but were just as ineffective. Then again, due to the pace of the game he only had six touches and he did have a fumble that San Francisco was able to recover. Kaepernick out-rushed Gore, whose 28 yards was far under his season average and not what the team expected from the franchise's all-time rushing leader. Part of it was Seattle jumping out to the early lead, but Gore and the running game provided no balance for the offensive attack. However, it can't be ignored that he got nothing from the running game.įrank Gore has relished playing against the Seahawks in the past, however, they finally had his number on Sunday night. He was going against one of the best defense's in the league and was on the road, but will need to play better and lead the offense to more then one touchdown if they hope to have post-season success. For the most part heseemed to handle the crowd noise after a few early delay-of-game penalties. He made several accurate throws down the field, and was the victim of several dropped passes. On the bright side he completed over 50% of his passes, finished with 244 yards passing, and on his only touchdown pass used his legs to buy himself time before finding Delanie Walker in the back of the end zone. San Francisco was outplayed in all phases of the game, but there is no need to panic, as the 49ers are still in a great position to make a deep run in the playoffs, so they can worry about the quickly improving Seahawks later.Ĭolin Kaepernick had his first bad game, but he had no help from his teammates. When they have won this season, the 49ers have done so as a team, and on Sunday Night, they lost as one. The only real suspense came from seeing if the Seahawks were going to score 50 points for the 3rd consecutive week. The score was never really close and the outcome was never in question. Century Field was rocking before the opening kickoff, and the Seattle Seahawks gave the home fans something to cheer about the entire game, demolishing the visiting San Francisco 49ers, 42-13.
