The Seattle Seahawks came into this game riding the momentum of a 10-game win streak against the San Francisco 49ers, which is the longest of any team vs any other team in the NFL, and a 4-game win streak overall. This game was an afterthought for probably everyone outside of the Niners’ locker room, including me, and the Seahawks played like it.
It didn’t look like that at first, however. Seattle would force a three and out on the game’s opening drive after Nick Mullens overthrew an open George Kittle on 3rd & 2.
