Key Points:

  • The 49ers' offense struggled significantly in their 13-3 loss to the Seahawks, with Brock Purdy facing a season-high three sacks and passing for a season-low 127 yards, while the running game was ineffective, highlighted by Christian McCaffrey's season-low 23 rushing yards.
  • Defensively, the 49ers allowed 180 rushing yards and had multiple missed tackles, with linebackers Tatum Bethune and Dee Winters exiting due to injuries, contributing to a poor run defense performance in a crucial game.
  • The pass defense was subpar, allowing Seahawks receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba to amass 84 yards and the 49ers recording an NFL-worst 20 sacks allowed over the season,
