Levi's Stadium Showdown: Seattle Seahawks Fall to San Francisco 49ers
In a Week 14 matchup at Levi's Stadium, the Seattle Seahawks now stand at 6-7 after a tough game against the San Francisco 49ers, who improved their record to 10-3. The final score read 28-16 in favor of the home team.
The Seahawks' offense managed to accumulate a total of 324 yards, with their passing game contributing significantly with 269 yards. Quarterback play was notable as they completed an impressive 70 percent of their passes and threw for two touchdowns, including the longest completion stretching for an impressive 31 yards. However, this aerial effort was slightly marred by two interceptions and four sacks allowed.
Seattle's ground game saw them rush for a total of 70 yards over twenty attempts. Despite not finding the end zone on the ground, they did manage to break five tackles and gain significant yardage after contact. The receiving corps had moments of success as well, catching two touchdown passes and making eight broken tackles which contributed to their average reception yardage being over twelve.
Special teams were reliable with field goal kicking being perfect on the day; one field goal attempt from within forty-nine yards sailed through for three points. Kickoff duties were also executed well with two touchbacks out of four kickoffs.
Defensively, Seattle showed resilience by recording three sacks and forcing one fumble which they recovered themselves. They also managed an interception that returned seven yards but struggled somewhat in third-down situations allowing conversions only eighteen percent of the time.
The Seahawks' fans witnessed some disciplined play from their team as they incurred only five penalties totaling thirty-nine penalty yards throughout the contest. This discipline helped maintain possession time where Seattle controlled the ball for just over half an hour.
Looking ahead, fans can mark their calendars for December 18th when Lumen Field will host another exciting NFL showdown as Philadelphia Eagles visit Seattle Seahawks at what promises to be a packed stadium under Monday night lights scheduled for kickoff at around eight fifteen PM local time (1:15 AM GMT). Fans unable to attend can catch all live action broadcasted on ABC/ESPN networks.
