– Fred Warner and Charles Omenihu were both shaken up on a Walker carry early in the second quarter. Seattle is dedicated to running the ball here. The longer they stay in this game the harder they’ll be to defend.
– That was cool by Seattle. They ran a direct snap to Walker after Smith lined up under the right guard. The play worked on third-and-1.
– Easy TD for Walker. The 49ers defense looked terrible on that series. Bad tackling and undisciplined against the run and pass. Seattle went 78 yards in 14 plays. Easy work for them. It’s 10-7 now.
– Good response by the 49ers after Seattle’s TD. Purdy hits Aiyuk for 23 yards on a play action boot. Easy read and good throw.
– The Seahawks are selling out to stop the run.
– Whew. Purdy is settling in. On second-and-12 he scrambled for 13 yards and a first down.
– Oh no. Purdy tries a shot to Aiyuk and it’s nearly intercepted. Samuel was wide open on a crossing route.
– Seattle is getting downhill so fast against the run. Expecting plenty of play action as this game plays out.
– Purdy took a sack on a blown up screen where Aaron Banks got worked on the interior. Just nowhere for Purdy to go. That sets up third-and-17 and the 49ers stall out in the red zone again. Gould hits another short field goal. 13-7, 49ers.
– Another big return puts Seattle at their own 30 to start their drive after the 49ers’ field goal. Huge series for San Francisco’s defense.
– Seattle is killing San Francisco with play action. This is as off-balance as the 49ers have looked on defense since the Chiefs game.
– Deep shot to DK Metcalf goes for a 50-yard TD and Seattle has the lead. This is what happens when red zone trips turn into field goal instead of touchdowns. Charvarius Ward got cooked. It’s 14-13, Seahawks.
– 5:01 left with the 49ers offense taking the field down a point. A long drive and any points would be huge because the 49ers get the ball back after halftime.
– The interior of the 49ers’ offensive line is having an abysmal first half. Seattle is in the backfield on every play.
– Another bad throw from Purdy on third-and-3 and the 49ers will punt. Another near interception. Three-and-out is bad, bad, bad.
– Good work by WR Danny Gray on special teams to help pin Seattle inside their own 20 after a nice punt by Mitch Wishnowsky.
– Ward just got railroaded by Metcalf. Tough look for the 49ers’ CB.
– The 49ers are just doing a poor…
