First of all the I think we need to stop acting like the 49ers are some pathetic team. With Mullens, they're actually decent. Certainly an average team in the NFL. Playing on the road, poor playing conditions (footing and wetness), with a team playing with nothing to lose.
The Seahawks offense was actually quite efficient most of the day. They controlled the ball, ran it very well. . The defense gave up yards but stood tall a few times on 3rd down but with some poor results. Doug Baldwin looks like Doug Baldwin again which is more important than a win if they want to make a big run in the playoffs. The Seahawks still have a 96% chance of making the playoffs

The Seahawks should have won the game and had the following happen to them:
-Two point-scoring drives extended by phantom DPI penalties
- Two most likely game winning drives negated by holding penalties. Ethan Pocic, 3rd string G will hopefully never play another snap for the Seahawks. These were likely not phantom but unlikely nontheless considering it required two guards to get hurt for him to play.
- There was a kickoff/special teams TD.
- There was at least one TD due to wrong equipment (cleats).
-There was one scoring drive due to 3 15 yard penalties.
Some .net poster said the 49ers looked like the "better" team. I cannot disagree more. The Seahawks dominated every aspect of the game except special teams.
The sky isn't falling. The Hawks are very good. And if you say otherwise, that's okay but don't come back here praising them when they knock of the darling chiefs next week who can't stop a nose bleed. End rant.
