Seahawks Beat 49ers on Thursday Night Football

Seahawks defensive tackle Brandon Mebane (92) looks on. He had similar remarks when the 49ers were in the midst of a four-game skid earlier this season. That’s not good and Colin proved why he’s rated so low during the October. 22 match against the Seahawks.

The Seahawks have been the NFC representative in the Super Bowl for the last two seasons but were 2-4 after their first six games, having proven unusually susceptible to blowing fourth quarter leads. The Seahawks made a series of transactions before the game.

In the Thanksgiving game, the 49ers gained only 164 yards – a horror show of awful offense when Kaepernick was baffled by the Seattle defense.

Bennett said his theme to defensive mates this short week between games was “chopping wood”. You might just get blasted in the face by an errant Kaepernick toss. The Seahawks have allowed just five pass plays of 20 yards or longer in their three wins compared with 20 in their four losses (and compared with 32 last season).

After the loss with rival Seattle Seahawks, the 49ers are dealing with division worst 2-5 win-loss record.

Finally, on the offensive side of the ball, comes running back Carlos Hyde.

“That game today was not what we want”, 49ers coach Jim Tomsula said.

Just in the latest offseason, the San Francisco 49ers lost a plethora of top players to retirement and free agency – not to mention, former head coach Jim Harbaugh went to coach Big Blue in Michigan.

“With our medical staff, we’re not going to put anyone in danger”, Tomsula said.

Only four days after snapping a four-game losing streak and beating the Baltimore Ravens 25-20, the 49ers offense retreated into early-season form. They lost to Seattle on another Thursday night at home, in an eerily similar scene to that 19-3 Thanksgiving defeat 11 months ago after which Richard Sherman chomped turkey on the field.

“Unacceptable. … that was sorry”, wide receiver Torrey Smith posted.

The second half provided little entertainment value, with each team getting just one field goal each. The 49ers ended the game with just a total of 142 yards for the game. The 176 yards total on the ground was the second best output of the season for Seattle. Colin Kaepernick is many things but one of those things is not a competent quarterback. “That’s the way we’re supposed to finish these games”. You can make a big deal about all that stuff right there, and all of a sudden that rallying cry becomes something more of a terrible thing.

“Reviewing the game, that game is not anything that any of us here are proud of”, he said.

Kaepernick got sacked on three of the 49ers’ final five offensive plays before halftime, and he completed 8 of 13 passes for only 44 yards in the first half. “It’s hard to get by this – it is; I’m not going to stand here and lie”. “They played better than us tonight”.

“I don’t know how that happens, ” coach Pete Carroll said.

FINDING THE HOLES: Wilson exploited San Francisco’s defensive failures at every chance, regularly finding wide-open receivers down the middle, while Marshawn Lynch powered his way to 122 yards and a leaping 1-yard touchdown.
