Oh, the days when San Francisco 49ers former head coach Jim Harbaugh and current Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll led their teams in bouts that would ultimately decide the outcome of the division and the NFC.
The two teams are headed in opposite directions. Seattle, unfazed by its ugly offensive showing to start 2016, seems to be right back on track to a playoff return. And the Niners? Well, their 37-18 loss to Seattle in Week 3 eerily parallels the same problems the team faced a year ago.
Yeah, this classic rivalry is dead. It has been for some time.
