The 49ers struggled to finish another game on Sunday against the Seahawks and it cost them dearly.

The San Francisco 49ers faced another disappointing defeat on Sunday afternoon, falling short in a 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks to drop to 5-5 on the year and 1-3 in divisional play.

It was a game in which the 49ers held a lead for much of the day, but couldn’t ultimately seal the deal, with the Seahawks pulling off the comeback by scoring a touchdown with just 12 seconds left in the game on Sunday.

Sunday’s loss brought up a recurring issue...

Looking at a few overreactions from the San Francisco 49ers’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks and tying it into the rest of the season

Monday’s are meant for overreactions. After a win, we often ignore the miscues because the San Francisco 49ers won on the scoreboard. But the day after a loss, somebody has to be fired. A coach or a player needs to be held accountable.

What overreactions do we have for this week? Let’s talk playoffs, coaching, and each side of the ball.

The 49ers season is over, and it’s time to let the young guys play...

The 49ers had another disappointing outcome in a game where they should have won. It’s not too surprising, as they’ve played the same game every game this year.

The parity in the NFL is why it’s the most-watched sport in the NFL. The variance from week to week provides outcomes that we least expect.

Then, there’s the San Francisco 49ers. This team had Super Bowl expectations but is now 5-5 and 1-3 in the NFC West—the disappointing offseason, during which Brandon Aiyuk and Trent Williams held out, carried into the preseason.

It wouldn’t be a Niners season without a litany...

Plus, Brock Purdy’s legs, and Kyle Shanahan blowing it late.

For the fourth time this season, the San Francisco 49ers have found themselves with a lead in the fourth quarter against an NFC West opponent.

The most recent instance was in Week 6 when the 49ers had a 23-17 lead in Seattle entering the fourth before beating the Seahawks 36-24 last month. Unfortunately, the same script wasn’t followed on Sunday, as Seattle overcame a fourth-quarter deficit to upset the 49ers, 20-17.

Despite the four fourth-quarter leads in the division, the 49ers fell to 1-3 in the NFC West with the...

Things are starting to look a bit bleak.

The San Francisco 49ers’ 20-17 loss seems to be repeating the things we’ve said about this team over and over again. Namely, they can’t finish, they can’t stay healthy, and outside heroics against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they can’t beat anyone with a winning record.

Not exactly a playoff team, let alone a Super Bowl team.

The Seahawks game shouldn’t have even gotten to the point it did. Many will point to the defense and how the 49ers were essentially watching Geno Smith run past them for the game-winning touchdown. Yeah, that’s...

49ers superstar Fred Warner had another iconic Bay Area athlete on his podcast.

Last week, San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner hosted Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green on his podcast, The Warner Podcast, and the duo of Bay Area superstars discussed the ongoing debate surrounding multi-sport athletes. Or, more specifically, whether it would be easier for NBA players to play in the NFL than the other way around. Unsurprisingly, given Green’s promising post-playing career prospects as a commentator, he gave an interesting and well-rounded answer.

“Listen, I’ll be 100% honest with you,” Green said. “As you know, I am...

49ers falter in fourth quarter, Seahawks come back for 20-17 win after Nick Bosa exits (paywall)

“They are a game behind the Cardinals for first place in the NFC West and tied with the Seahawks (5-5) and Rams (5-5), but they have a 1-3 record in the division.”

Hutchinson: The 2024 49ers don’t have another gear

“Despite all of that, we’re supposed to believe this injury-ridded, error-defined team is destined for greatness? That our eyes deceive us week after week? Enough.

This team has been at...

The 49ers playoff hopes took a hit on Sunday with a tough loss to a divisional opponent.

The San Francisco 49ers suffered a disappointing 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, unraveling near the end of the game to drop to 5-5 on the year and 1-3 in divisional play.

It was another ugly loss for the 49ers, who never seemed to be able to close out the game and ultimately got beaten by an 11-play, 80-yard touchdown drive, with quarterback Geno Smith scrambling for the go-ahead score with 12 seconds left in the game.

Coming into Sunday, it...

Another game to watch Jim Harbaugh

I don’t know if any of you want to watch a football game after what we just witnessed in the San Francisco 49ers’ atrocious loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but it gives you a chance to check in on a former 49ers coach if you’re so inclined.

Tonight, we have the Los Angeles Chargers hosting the Cincinnati Bengals. The Chargers are 6-3, but they have yet to beat a team with a winning record. If you’re a 49er fan, the football you have seen from the Chargers may remind you of when Chargers head...

The 49ers had another ugly outing in the division, this time at home against the Seattle Seahawks.

The San Francisco 49ers dropped another ugly divisional game at Levi’s Stadium, falling to 5-5 on the season with a 20-17 defeat at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

It was another ugly game for the 49ers, as they just weren’t able to close out the contest, despite having a number of opportunities to do so, allowing Seattle to mount a comeback, with quarterback Geno Smith scoring the go-ahead touchdown with just 12 seconds left.

Offensively, the 49ers really struggled to...

The offense is moving the ball, but can’t settle for field goals in the red zone

McCaffrey picked up a 3rd & 1. Aaron Banks was flagged for a holding call to back the offense up. Kyle Juszczyk left after taking a knee to the helmet. He was in the blue medical tent.

An illegal formation negated a chunk gain for McCaffrey. That penalty was the seventh of the game, equalling as many points as San Francisco had. The Niners stalled in the red zone, but Moody’s kick extended the lead to 10-6.

Nick Bosa sacked Geno for the second...

Talking through the 49ers’ game as it happens.

The San Francisco 49ers first possession without George Kittle resulted in a three-and-out. Pat O’Donnell made his punting debut with Mich Wishnowsky out with a back injury. O’Donnell’s punt went 43 yards with no return.

Geno Smith’s first pass went for 12 yards, as Isaac Yiadom gambled and lost. The Seahawks took a shot down the field on first down, but Dee Winters — the linebacker we’ve been clamoring for in pass coverage — was in a great position to break up Smith’s pass.

On 3rd & 2, Jaxon Smith-Njigba beat Renardo...
