Escape from Seattle

300 yards passing hurray

The 49ers tried everything they could not to win, but in the end they beat the Seahawks in overtime 33-30. Thanks in part to JT O’Sullivan, Isaac Bruce and Mike Martz. JT finished the day with 321 yards passing and a TD. The first 300 yard passer since 2004.

The 49ers on paper should have rolled the Seahawks, who had no receivers and a runningback who was almost cut in the preseason, but the 49ers run defense forgot how to tackle and the defensive line forgot how to pressure. It wasn’t all on the run defense, however, who gave up 169 yards. The special teams also played like crap. From a missed field goal to end it in regulation to a blocked punt which resulted in a Seahawks first down, the 49ers defense and special teams did what they could to not leave Seattle with a W.

The highlight the majority of the game was the offensive passing game. As said earlier JT threw for over 300 and didn’t turn the ball over. It was a rough day for him as he was sacked eight times, but yet he overcame that and got the team in position to win it in overtime and this time Nedney was money.

Couple more things I’d like to point out is the interception for touchdown Patrick Willis had. Willis you are a God. And for those that didn’t hear, Jonas Jennings didn’t play the second half due to an injury. Wow that’s a surprise.

Bring on Detroit.
