I think you don't give armstead as much credit as he deserves. He was double teamed. and he was all over the ball the whole game. Also I am glad ward is back, but tartt is playing to well and needs to be on the field too. So does reid if he's not injured. Ward needs to go back to corner. Its a waste of talent to not have the best players on the field, and ward can play corner. There is something fierce about Tarrt and reid on the field that ward can't match!

All the tape I just watched I didn't see Arik doubled one time? He was easily blocked by the TE, T or RB on every play I just watched. Except for this sack that was a busted blocking assignment by the TE and RB.

Very encouraged by the defensive performance. SEA's offense may not be good, but considering how poorly the 49ers have looked defensively the past couple seasons, it's easy to say that the defense is on the right track. ALynch needs to be in the lineup for good. No need for XCooper to be suiting up when there's positional flexibility from some of the other DL. Glad Ward was able to finish the game. I don't think Wilson tested the 49ers secondary deep so that's a good sign that Ward was in position.

Offensively it was frustrating not to see more short range passes designed to isolate the RB/TE. Maybe SEA was squatting all the short stuff. Considering how well the offense was running the ball, I would have thought the passing game (playaction) would have some semblance of success. Three red zone appearances, three field goals - that's ballgame.

Seattle was a few plays away from this being a 27-9 game. 49ers defense was a few missed turnovers away from stealing the game.

Defense gave up 21 first downs. They didn't play as good as the score sounds.

Lynch was dogging it in practice so the coaches did something about it to try and wake his ass up.

I don't think Ward was the reason Russ didn't try more deep shots. It's because his OL can't block that long. lol

49ers were 2/12 on 3rd downs. That's horrific.

Excellent summary. Couldn't have written it better myself. 100% aligned with all points - even the "If Thomas had been playing, Wilson might not have been the 49er killer."

Hehe. And I say to Laken...



Well done.

He did an outstanding job considering.

Also, your dude (Hyde) was again willing himself into extra yards despite the weak Kilgore.
