I know it is from Bleacher Report, but I thoroughly enjoyed the descriptions of the game. There are quite a few plays described, but here are some good quotes:
The Seahawks were emotional, fiery and, well, mean as hell. The 19-3 final score didn't show it, but this was a total beatdown.
After every big stop, the Seahawks defenders would jump, high-five and celebrate. They'd do so excessively, particularly after stopping a runner or embarrassing Kaepernick, which was often.
They were mad. They were ornery. They are back.
It's official now: The Seahawks are the most dangerous team in the NFC.
Seattle's schedule down the stretch is so brutal, it's still possible they might not make the postseason. But they will make this final stretch interesting. The way they throttled the 49ers and intimidated one of the most physical teams in football says a great deal.
The score should have been at least 20-0 at the half instead of 13-0. But in that first half, the Seahawks had almost as many penalty yards (65) as the 49ers had total offensive yards (71). That first half was so bad that thousands—perhaps tens of thousands—of 49ers fans left at halftime and didn't come back.
This isn't to say Seattle is the best team in the NFC. But it is, right now, maybe the scariest. Because the Seahawks have regained their ability to physically dominate. They are playing like a bunch of crazed dogs again. When the Seahawks are like this, they are incredibly hard to beat.
While Kaepernick's play was putrid, Wilson's was at times spectacular. What the moronic Wilson critics continue to fail to grasp is that his game is versatility. That in itself makes him weaponized far more than his critics want to admit.
