Eric Reid Discusses 49ers Lack of Execution on Defense

The San Francisco 49ers starting free safety made no excuses for the team’s defensive performance against the Seattle Seahawks.

Eric Reid spoke with the media on Monday and gave his honest analysis of the 29-13 defeat from CenturyLink Field.

“It just comes down to execution, whether it’s fitting in the right gap or executing your tackle and technique,” Reid said. “It’s plain as day to see when you don’t execute what you’re supposed to as a player. The game gets away from you.”

Much of the damage came from Seattle’s backup running back Thomas Rawls.
